About This Home

As of August 2022

This well situated large corner lot offers the perfect setting for this wonderful NW Wilmette split level home located a block from the famed Romona school. You'll immediately appreciate this well built and meticulously maintained three bedroom, three bathroom home when you pull up onto the newly paved driveway and into the two car garage. As you enter thru the front door, you will notice the solid warm hardwood flooring and ample closet space. As you saunter forward, to your left will be the freshly renovated kitchen with white stone counters, stainless steel appliances, and bright skylights. Imagine yourself preparing apps and cocktails while you watch your friends and family mulling around in the modern dining room before migrating to the large sunken living room with its luxurious cathedral ceiling. When ready you grab your gimlet and step down into the living room to join everyone as they que up a movie or tune into the game. From your comfy couch, gaze thru the french style glassdoors and oversize windows to admire the lovely private fenced yard. Upstairs you'll appreciate that the three bedrooms are all together. The en-suite has a mini room that could be a dream walk in closet or a private home office with a window. The finished lower level has a large space ready for a ping-pong or billiards set up, and another area well suited as a designated audio video room. On this floor is another full bathroom, laundry/utility room, and extra storage. Mechanically speaking, the home has a serious Kohler whole house back up generator system, 200 amp electrical service, and an elaborate well maintained and overbuilt sump pump system designed to provide total piece of mind. As a bonus, due to the size and shape of this corner lot, if you ever wanted to create the ultimate dog run, this space would be perfect. This wonderful home could be yours. Concrete driveway 2022, kitchen remodel with white quartz 2021, Kohler 14 KW whole house generator system, HVAC system, 200 amp electric service upgrade, Ring system 2020, Roof 2014, Windows 2012.
