Description

A true standout in Wilmette's coveted Indian Hill Estates, this showstopping 6-bedroom, 5.1-bath custom brick home offers the perfect blend of timeless elegance, luxurious updates, and exceptional space-both inside and out. An impressive two-story foyer welcomes you with a grand staircase, flowing into formal living and dining rooms-ideal for entertaining. The dining room connects to a lovely butler's pantry, while the heart of the home lies in the expansive chef's kitchen, recently redesigned by DG Kitchen & Bath. Here, you'll find a large center island, top-tier appliances, abundant custom cabinetry, and a sunlit breakfast area that opens to a lush backyard and patio through oversized windows and French doors. The kitchen flows into the family room, which features a shared two-sided fireplace and seamless indoor-outdoor connection-creating the perfect setting to gather, relax, or entertain. The flexible main-floor office-with walk-in closet and full bath-was designed as a potential bedroom suite and is ideal for work-from-home needs or multi-generational living. A custom mudroom with cubbies, a planning center, and access to the 2-car attached garage adds everyday ease. Upstairs, a spacious landing with built-in bookshelves provides a cozy homework or reading nook. Five generously sized bedrooms include a luxurious primary suite with French doors to a private balcony. The newly renovated spa bath with double vanity, separate soaking tub, and an oversized walk-in closet add to the appeal. Two beautifully appointed Jack-and-Jill baths and a large second-floor laundry room enhance the home's comfort and functionality. A versatile third-floor retreat offers endless possibilities-perfect for a playroom, creative studio, or guest space. Downstairs, the finished lower level offers a huge recreation room, exercise area, kitchenette, sixth bedroom, full bath, a second laundry room, plus an additional room with beamed ceiling and fireplace that can be used as another office, lounge, game room, or media space. This lower level provides a stylish retreat for entertaining or unwinding. Set on nearly half an acre (.44 acres), surrounded by mature landscaping and privacy, this home is the ultimate retreat. Beautifully updated and with a smart circular floor plan, incredible versatility, and an unbeatable location, this home is a rare and remarkable offering in one of Wilmette's most coveted neighborhoods.

  • Smithp78
    "Easy to commute to downtown via Metra. Not always easy to find parking at Metra after 7:15. A lot of people walk. Possible to drive downtown but takes up to 90 minutes in morning rush. "
  • Shannon J.
    "People are extremely welcoming and friendly. We moved here a few months ago, and have never felt so immediately at home in a community!"
  • Iltonz

  • Miriam H

    "very diverse demographics than past years! vibrant community, great facilities, amazing schools and school staff."
  • Teresa K.
    "Great. All back roads to NU. never have to get on the free way. Only mild back UPS on Greenbay avenue during rush hour. There are lots of schools along the way which can slow you down due to buses and speed zones but that is the least of my worries "
  • Charles A.
    "There are plenty of sidewalks and parks in the area. The only problem is there are no legal off leash parks within walking distance. "

  • cdtangney
    "I have lived on and off in Wilmette for 30+ years. Grew up here. Eventually moved back here to raise my own family. Its one of the safest places in the country. The schools are excellent. The parks are beautiful, clean and have updated equipment. The Park District, With all that it has to offer for kids and adults, is incredible. The people are actively involved throughout the neighborhood. There are a few new dining and nightlife venues that are helping to make Wilmette all inclusive. Access to a great pool facility and one of the best beaches on the North shore just make it for this area. I highly recommend Wilmette to any young couple getting started, to anyone wanting to raise a family and to those looking to finish out their lives filled with quiet beauty in a safe place."
  • cg
    "Have lived here for 10 years. The schools are superb and the people are like people anywhere. Some are nice and some are snotty but you can ignore them. Its great for the things that matter. Traffic getting into Chicago is usually bad but the Metra train is great."
  • conceptking
    "Walking distance to everything - CTA, Metra, Parks, Beach, shopping in Wilmette and Evanston Central St. area. And a short drive to Sheridan Road/LSD and i-94.Phenomenal for families of all ages with nationally recognized and award winning schools. A fantastic and safe neighborhood and a hidden gem that borders Evanston. If there's a house that's within your budget range, make an offer - you will not be disappointed. "
  • lindamcz123
    "I used to live in this community years ago and loved every day. There are two malls within walking distance. A couple of bus lines that can take you the the downtown train. Excellent expressway access going both north or south. The Park district is right across the street with an amazing Gym, child care and much, much more. LOVE Wilmette, and this area of it."
