About This Home

As of August 2026

Welcome to 9224 Central Park, a masterfully renovated Evanston/Skokie residence where elegant design and uncompromising quality define every space. An impressive foyer sets the tone for this exceptional home, which offers the rare combination of timeless sophistication, modern infrastructure, and effortless livability through extensive high-end improvements. Rich hickory flooring flows throughout the completely redesigned first floor, where beautifully curated living and entertaining spaces include an exquisite formal dining room, a stunning custom kitchen, custom mudroom, beautifully updated fireplace, integrated Sonos sound system, and elevated designer finishes at every turn. The basement underwent a full-scale transformation into an extraordinary lower-level extension of the home, featuring a private fifth bedroom, expansive recreation and play spaces, a second family room, dedicated art and fitness areas, and upgraded heating systems. Upstairs, the serene primary suite was elevated with sophisticated expansive custom closet design and spa-inspired bath renovations complete with a dual vanity sink and dry sauna. The second floor also features three additional large bedrooms, each offering generous closet space, abundant natural light, and beautifully updated finishes. Every improvement was completed with both beauty and longevity in mind, including a redesigned laundry room with custom-built storage solutions, drain tile installation surrounding the entire home, and a backflow flood prevention system for exceptional peace of mind. Outdoors, professionally designed bluestone hardscaping and dedicated gas lines for both the grill and custom fire pit create a resort-like setting for intimate evenings and large-scale gatherings alike. Significant capital improvements-including a new roof (2020), solar panels, and upgraded electrical service-further elevate the home's rare blend of luxury, efficiency, and thoughtful craftsmanship. Steps from top schools, a lovely park and much more. This exceptional residence offers a refined lifestyle with thoughtfully designed spaces for both everyday living and elegant entertaining.
