About This Home

As of June 2021

Fantastic Wilmette newer build in favorite Mckenzie School Neighborhood. This 4+ bedroom, 4.1 bath home was built in 2007 and recently updated with everything you're looking for in a home! Front porch invites you in to foyer, with living room to the left (now being used as an office) and large dining room to the right. Updated kitchen is lovely, with new quartz counters, backsplash and stovetop. Kitchen opens to large eat-in area and huge family room with beautiful stone gas (with remote!) fireplace. Huge mudroom will stow all of your stuff! Second floor has wonderful primary suite, with coffered ceilings, 2 walk-in closets, built-ins and large private bathroom. 3 additional bedrooms on 2nd floor, one with en suite bath, and two share Jack and Jill bath. The 3rd floor loft space would be a great office or teen hang-out space. Enjoy heated floors in all three bathrooms and mudroom! The basement is fully finished and an open, flexible space with a wet-bar, rec-room area, workout area, a 5th bedroom and full bath. So many improvements and updates, including professional landscaping, new water heaters, new flooring in basement and newer appliances.
