About This Home
As of May 2021All the right spaces for today's new lifestyle. Plenty of space for homeschooling, officing, exercising, and more. Recently renovated and re-imagined, this outstanding and classic home is located on a quiet, tree-lined and dead-end street, walking distance to McKenzie, Highcrest, Wilmette Junior High, stores, parks, and the Metra. Loaded with striking architectural features and stunning updates, this home offers a dramatic entry foyer which leads to a sophisticated living room (with a wood-burning fireplace) and dining room (with French doors leading to the rear patio) -- both rooms are perfect for entertaining. A special feature of the home is its first floor office or 5th bedroom with its large closet and adjacent full bath. The kitchen is a Chef's dream with its large eat-in island, double oven, bar area and miles of cabinet and granite counter space. An adjacent sitting area offers French doors which lead out to the professionally landscaped rear area where one can enjoy the built-in firepit in a private setting under magnificent, mature trees. The newly renovated 2nd floor includes an out-of-this-world master suite with a luxury "spa" bath (bubbler tub, heated floors and dual sinks, granite counters, etc.), an ensuite bedroom, and two other bedrooms which share a hall bath. The lower level offers great space for exercising, movie night, and game playing - all with the convenience of a wet bar and an adjacent full bath with a steam shower. Also enjoy the room-sized mudroom with a dog bath, as well as a newer roof, mechanicals and windows. Plus, the home is newly painted and has freshly sanded & buffed hardwood floors. The 2-1/2 car garage comes furnished with an electric car charger. It is ready for your most discriminating buyer!
