Description
The only 3-bedroom available now in award-winning Dewey School, this exquisite showstopper punches way above its weight. With an extensive remodeling in 2017, you can move-right into the quiet neighborhood where once-a-month coffee meetups at adjacent Smith Park are the norm. Be greeted at the front door by a sun-filled open staircase punctuated by a huge skylight and statement blue chandelier. The 10,000 square foot lot is a gardener's dream lined with mature trees, a vegetable and certified pollinator garden on one end and a newer patio for entertaining on the other. Large rear addition has fantastic sunken chef's kitchen opens to expansive family room with fireplace; high ceilings and big windows with transoms overlooking impeccably landscaped back yard. You'll live back here, but there's also the large living room that includes a separate sitting area that can be used for as a library or yoga area; dining room that is currently being used as an office, mudroom with cubbies adorned with reclaimed wood & full bath on main level. Upstairs, principal bedroom has skylights and a cathedral ceiling, with walk-in closet and adjacent nursery/office. Spa bathroom with soaking tub & separate shower + second floor laundry! Very large 2nd bedroom can fit two beds, also with great closet space - and don't miss the hidden reading nook/loft accessed by a built-in ladder! Both bedrooms give you entree to the fabulous south-facing balcony that overlooks the entire yard and park next door. Finished basement with rec room, full bath, laundry/workshop & storage. Central air with dual zones. Meticulously maintained all around and with an extremely flexible floorplan for every buyer's needs. The owners currently use their home as a 3 bedroom but can easily be used as a four. Very secluded, private setting with no houses on either side of the property. 2.5 car garage. A short distance through the Ridge Historic District to downtown Evanston and the Metra / El. Only 3 blocks to Dewey school. A one-of-a-kind home with tons of light and character.
