About This Home
This stunning Queen Anne home (The David Robertson Forgan House) was designed by Harry Bergen Wheelock and built in 1894. First floor rooms include a large entry hall with sitting area and fireplace; spacious living room with stately moldings, built in bookcases and tiled fireplace; dining room with room for two dining tables and featuring exquisite wainscotting and built-in buffet, all in pristine condition; a spacious office with curved walls, beautiful windows, and curved pocket door; a family room with original tiled decorative fireplace and curved pocket door; and a fully updated kitchen with built-in bench, high end appliances, separate bar area plus mudroom and plentiful storage. The second floor includes a primary suite with sitting room and 3 additional bedrooms with ensuite baths. The third floor features an amazing full basketball court in the former ballroom, game room, 2 additional bedrooms and full bath. The finished basement, which was dug out to create 9' ceilings, includes a stunning built-in bar, theater room, exercise room, recreation room, large finished storage room, and additional bedroom or study. The architect used a system of turns and landings on the central staircase to create sitting areas on the first and second floors. The first floor has an inglenook complete with built-in benches and a fireplace, while the second floor space is open. Elaborately carved, pierced wood screens allow light into the sitting areas, while separating those from the stair landings. The current owners have undertaken an extensive revitalization and modernization of the home, the details of which are available upon request. The property also includes an oversized 2+ car garage and a 2 bedroom coach house, also fully updated. This is a stunning, one-of-a-kind property in pristine condition and within walking distance to downtown Evanston.
