About This Home

As of July 2022

Welcome to 452 Highcrest, a wonderful spacious ranch, sitting perfectly at the curve of a quiet cul-de-sac. A welcoming foyer opens to a very large living room and dining room, both flooded with ample light from the beautiful front picture window. An adjoining family room overlooks the landscaped yard and enjoys a pleasing wall of windows. The bright kitchen with plenty of cupboard and pantry space opens to a spacious breakfast room that opens to the rear patio, perfect for summer BBQ's! This home was solidly built by the current owner's father along with Architect Ted Theodore, who designed Jewell and Walgreen stores on the NorthShore. It boasts 4 bedrooms and 2.1 baths and enjoys a large-scale lower level with a huge finished rec room with stone fireplace, sizeable laundry room, workroom and future full bath which is already plumbed. There are exterior stairs leading to the basement. Plus, a wonderful 2 car attached garage! This is a home with incredible possibilities. Although it is currently move-in ready, it could easily be designed as Mid Century Modern. Here's a Fun Fact: The story goes...When the home was built, the then groundskeeper of Wrigley Field had a connection with the Owner. He was in charge of replacing the grass on the field. After removing the grass, he brought some over to 452 and planted the entire backyard with the infield grass! Play catch on grass from Wrigley Field! There's even perimeter lighting! Long list of improvements, including: Anderson Renewal windows, basement waterproofing with Perma Seal, new: electric, solid core doors throughout, carpeting (hardwood floors in bedrooms), furnace, A/C, rebuilt chimney, etc. Fabulous walk-to location, schools, shops, Wilmette parks, swimming pools, tennis and ice rink. There is even a direct cut through to Highcrest Middle School! A beautiful home, built with lasting quality, that has enjoyed the love of one extended family and baseball loving Chicago history!
