About This Home

As of November 2022

Incredible opportunity to live in one of Wilmette's most convenient neighborhoods. All schools, just steps away: Romona Elementary, Highcrest Middle School and Wilmette Junior High. Gorgeous park setting with tennis courts, playground and plenty of space to run around. This home is impeccably maintained by longtime owner and much bigger than it looks with 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. The first floor features an open living room/dining room space with gorgeous oak floors and floor to ceiling windows. Spacious kitchen with newer appliances and countertops. The second floor features a Primary suite, plus 2 additional bedrooms. The lower level features a bright family room, 2 additional bedrooms and a 3rd bathroom plus a bonus, extra large recreation room with second kitchen which opens to beautiful patio. Oversized, attached 2 car garage with attic storage. This home is a must see!
