Description

Looking for an East Winnetka home full of charm to check all of your boxes? Look no further! Premiere location - walk, cycle, skip to Greeley or New Trier schools, town, train, and lake - it's all here! A covered front entry porch draws you into the welcoming foyer. This spacious open floor plan was designed for ease of living with great traffic "flow" and gobs of natural light thru-out! The awesome kitchen is the center of it all. Features a fabulous square island with additional seating, adjoins eat-in area and spacious family room. Large doors open to the most idyllic wrap around porch where you can sit and watch backyard activities, luxuriate on the porch swing with a good book or eat al fresco and watch the neighborhood go by. There are large rooms, tall ceilings, and huge windows that drench this beauty's interior with full southern & eastern exposures. Large separate dining room has a beautiful, coffered ceiling, sparkly chandelier and a sweet bay with delicate stained-glass windows. There is a great wet bar for entertaining as well as a desk/homework area. The charming custom stairway leads to four bedrooms (including primary suite) on the 2nd floor and 3 bedrooms & 2 full baths on the 3rd floor, one of which is so large it could be a teen retreat or upstairs hang-out. The primary suite has two large walk-in closets and fully appointed ensuite bath. Three other bedrooms and hall bath with laundry make up the 2nd floor. Lower level is finished and features a mud room, an office area, utility area and two other carpeted rec rooms. The professionally landscaped yard is lush and enclosed with a beautiful wrought iron fence and gate. 2 car detached garage and nice shed for bikes, beach chairs and gardening tools. This wonderful home won an award for best renovation in 2007 so everything "under the hood" has been touched. Present owners have enjoyed 18 years here and have taken exceptional care of all moving parts, adding a Generac generator for protection. Don't miss this wonderful Winnetka opportunity!

    "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. "
