About This Home

As of November 2019

This is the one you have been waiting for! It is the best of both worlds - loaded with vintage charm, but fully improved with today's buyer in mind.

The inviting master suite has a spacious bathroom with double sink vanity, whirlpool, and large shower.

Perfectly located on the famed Lake Bluff 4th of July Parade route, one block from downtown, and five blocks from Lake Michigan. Enjoy al fresco dining from the covered stone porch. Brick walkways and professional landscaping beautifully accent the property.
