Description
This extraordinary, solid all-brick single-family residence has been meticulously reimagined with high-end finishes and thoughtful design throughout. Located directly across from Harper Elementary and just a block from Thornwood Park, this home offers unmatched charm, comfort, and convenience in an A+ Wilmette location. Step into the foyer, where the formal living room greets you with a gas fireplace framed by stunning tile surround and French doors leading to a private patio. The chef-inspired kitchen is a true showstopper-featuring two-tone cabinetry, textured subway tile wrapping a custom range hood, extra-thick quartz countertops, and designer fixtures throughout. Just off the kitchen, the sleek mudroom includes heated floors, a built-in locker system, and access to a spacious 2-car garage with epoxy floors. The sun-drenched family room is designed for both relaxing and entertaining, with a second gas fireplace, whitewashed stone accent wall, and sliding doors that open to a beautifully landscaped backyard. Enjoy the garden, play-set, and expansive stone patio perfect for grilling, dining, and gathering. The main level is completed by a formal dining room with elegant wallpaper and a statement light fixture, a stylish half bath, and white oak flooring with integrated speaker system throughout. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite featuring two walk-in closets, a cozy fireplace, and a spa-inspired bathroom with soaking tub, dual vanity, and custom walk-in shower with gold fixtures and built-in bench. Additional bedrooms are generously sized, with ample storage and access to two bathrooms, one fully updated and one en-suite. The top-level bonus room is ideal as a fifth bedroom or private office, featuring skylights, ample storage, and two sets of stackable laundry units for added convenience. The finished basement is an entertainer's dream with a full kitchen and bar area, a full bath, guest suite space, and an abundance of storage. Additional highlights include dual-zone HVAC, newer water heater, new window-wells, newer roof (2023), privacy gate, and numerous thoughtful upgrades too extensive to list. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own one of Wilmette's finest homes-just minutes from award-winning schools, parks, dining, and shopping.
