About This Home

One of East Kenilworth's finest homes, this classic residence honors its storied past while answering the demands of today's living-thoughtfully restored and completely reimagined so that historic character and modern comfort live side by side. Preserved leaded glass windows, soaring ceilings, gorgeous millwork, and beautiful moldings carry timeless elegance into every room, while updated systems, finishes, and conveniences throughout deliver the everyday function today's homeowners expect. Designed for entertaining, the first floor offers grand rooms that flow seamlessly from one to the next, making gatherings effortless. Beyond the foyer, a spacious living room anchored by a beautiful fireplace opens to an elegant dining room, which leads into an impeccable O'Brien/Harris kitchen that is truly a chef's dream. Top-of-the-line appliances, hand-painted custom cabinetry, and flexible dining at the oversized island or generous family dining area create a warm, functional heart of the home where period charm and contemporary livability meet. The kitchen flows into a wonderful family room, while the outdoor deck sets the stage for the seamless indoor-outdoor living modern life calls for. Upstairs, beautiful leaded glass windows guide you to the second floor, highlighted by a luxurious primary suite complete with a spacious bedroom, spa-like bath, walk-in closet, and private balcony. A gracious second bedroom offers built-ins and an ensuite bath, while two additional family bedrooms share a full bath. The third floor features a wonderful hangout space surrounded by two bedrooms and a full bath-an ideal retreat for guests, teenagers, or extended family. Adding to the home's rare appeal, an exceptional coach house sits above the heated two-car garage. Complete with a full kitchen and brand-new full bath, this flexible space offers endless possibilities like a guest retreat, workout room, home office, or studio. Beautifully landscaped and set nicely back from the street, the home welcomes you with a wonderful sense of privacy and calm. The spacious backyard feels like a true retreat-perfect for lively gatherings, quiet mornings, or relaxed evenings outdoors. Ideally located across the street from the new Townley Field playground as well as steps from the award-winning Joseph Sears School (JK-8th), New Trier High School, , with the beach only a short walk away. A rare blend of timeless architecture, modern comfort, exceptional flexibility, and an unmatched East Kenilworth setting-this is a truly special opportunity to own a piece of local heritage, thoughtfully restored and beautifully updated for today's living.
