About this House

Classic 5 bedroom 4.5 bathroom center entrance colonial with terrific layout and extra wide lot (75 x180). The circular flow of the house will delight buyers. Late 1990s addition off the back of the house allowed for an open concept kitchen/family room space and mud room on the ground level and a huge primary suite on the 2nd floor. The 2nd floor has an additional 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and laundry room with a 5th bedroom on the 3rd floor. Deep finished basement has plenty of room for media, fitness, etc. and was extended for additional storage. Another wave of major improvements occurred between 2009-14 that included but was not limited to: a new kitchen with limestone counters, new mudroom, new front stairs, new powder room and basement bath, dug out basement with radiant floors, new sewer clean out and new windows. Since then, current owners have meticulously maintained the property and added a new driveway, professional landscaping and built an expansive deck, basketball hoop and swing set in the backyard. All work has been performed by top tier contractors. Additional laundry in the basement. Oversized 3 car brick garage has full attic access. Roof has 40 year architectural shingles. Walk to Winnetka Public School Nursery, Crow Island Elementary, Skokie Middle School, Washburne Junior High, A.C. Nielsen Ice and Tennis Center, turf fields and Metra.

    "Lived here for 22 years. Raised our family here. Would do it again given the chance. Great mix of people from different backgrounds and heritage. Only downfall is politically backwards and cannot get anything done in the village that’s required to stay current with infrastructure or lifestyle. "
