About This Home
As of March 2022If you are looking for a home that has it all, this is it! This incredible 4 bed/2.1 bath home was fully renovated in 2017 by Ed Deegan Architects and will wow and astound. No detail was overlooked and no expense spared! Priority was given to materials, inside and out, that are low maintenance and long lasting including new cement board siding, Trex composite decking, metal roof, spray foam insulation, and quality interior finishes. Large open kitchen with island, custom cabinetry, luxury appliance, & soapstone countertops is open to the dining room and casual living room. The family room opens to the backyard with new deck, yard, and new 2 car garage and has such a beautiful stone fireplace and natural light. Instaworthy vignettes abound with huge mudroom, sliding barn door, soapstone, marble, new hardwood floors, shiplap powder room, all new bathrooms, and completely renovated primary suite with cathedral ceilings, walk in boutique closet, separate sinks, whirlpool tub, separate shower, and another gorgeous fireplace. Aside from all of these incredible aspects, the home has a location that cannot be beat! Situated 3 blocks from restaurants, coffee, and UPN Metra; 3 blocks from Lake Michigan, Sunrise Beach; and last but certainly not least, on the 4th of July parade route!
