About This Home

As of August 2021

Privacy and serenity await with this lush 1/3 acre property in the heart of Thornwood Park. Vaulted ceilings and wood beams make for a dramatic entrance. Enjoy views of the expansive lawn and gorgeous landscape from nearly every room - including the wonderful "treetop" recreation room (no dark, dingy basements here)! With dual primary suites (one on the main floor and one upstairs), and two additional bedrooms on the main floor, you'll find space for all. The kitchen features gleaming white quartz counters, stainless appliances, a butlers' pantry, a breakfast bar, cozy breakfast nook and fireplace hearth. A main level laundry room, mud area, spacious family room (with fireplace), and sophisticated dining room round out the main level. This unique home is just 2 blocks to Harper Elementary and 1 block to all the amenities of Thornwood Park. Centrally located in Wilmette (and also a close walk to Highcrest, Wilmette Junior High, Centennial Pool/Tennis/Rink, the Metra train, and downtown Wilmette), this is a neighborhood with summer concerts on the park, block parties galore and many neighborhood gatherings! Don't miss this very special home.
