About This Home

As of April 2026

Step into a piece of Evanston history with this charming 1938 George Cyrus Sr.-built home, lovingly maintained by only three owners since its construction. Nestled in a serene neighborhood, this timeless gem has been treasured by its current owners for 25 years and is ready for its next chapter. Inside, you'll find a thoughtfully preserved layout boasting 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The main level invites you in with a bright, welcoming living room that flows seamlessly into a separate dining room-perfect for daily life or hosting friends and family. The updated kitchen was stripped to the studs and redesigned with abundant cabinetry, ample counter space, and newer stainless steel appliances. Toward the rear of the home, a sunlit family room offers a cozy retreat with views of the beautifully landscaped backyard. A spacious first-floor bedroom and full bath provide added convenience and versatility. Upstairs, the second floor features three generously sized bedrooms-including the primary-and a beautifully updated full bath. Need more space? The fully finished basement is ready to adapt to your needs, whether as a playroom, home office, or media lounge. Outside, discover your private backyard oasis: a gorgeous fenced yard featuring a brick patio, garden beds, and a gravel area ideal for a fire pit. It's the perfect backdrop for summer barbecues, quiet mornings with coffee, or evenings under the stars. This is more than just a house-it's a home with a story, ready for you to write the next chapter. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Evanston's charm!
