About This Home
As of April 2026Welcome to this one-of-a-kind mid-century modern masterpiece, offered for only the second time in its history. This exceptional five-bedroom, 3.5-bath home sits just one block from revitalized Central Park in one of Evanston's most desirable neighborhoods. Thoughtfully updated with today's conveniences while preserving its architectural integrity, the residence evokes the timeless spirit of Frank Lloyd Wright. Designed for easy one-level living, the main floor features four spacious bedrooms, 2.5 baths, an updated kitchen, laundry, and a dramatic 44' x 17' living and dining area wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass that fills the home with natural light. Three new Marvin sliding doors open to a 20' x 30' Azek deck and expansive private yard. The lower level offers a bright multipurpose space with kitchenette, bedroom, full bath, and storage. A rare double lot with attached two-car garage completes this extraordinary offering. This is a move in ready home that will be sold "AS IS".
