Description

Nestled on an idyllic Wilmette street in the coveted Mckenzie Square under a canopy of trees, this charming 3 bedroom 1 1/2 bath cottage is set on a true gardener's landscaped lot. Fronted by a screened-in porch with exquisite facade detailing, the generous center entry hall welcomes you into a home perfectly suited for both living and entertaining. A spacious living room with handsome fireplace and lovely bookshelves connects to the screened porch with gracious, deep-set windows and centered French doors, a perfect place for taking in the neighborhood. The bright kitchen, clad in gorgeous carrara marble countertops and high end appliances stretches out to a peaceful bay sitting area and connects to a back porch and lovingly maintained backyard and garden. A wonderful brick patio & fenced yard are perfect for "kids" of all ages. The second floor has generous ceiling height and plenty of light that fills the three bedrooms. The upstairs bath is masterfully renovated with carrara marble, a soaking tub, a skylight and separate shower to complete the peaceful retreat. The basement play area is large and clean and offers plenty of possibilities. A garage plus carport provide ample parking space. 1620 Highland is perfectly located near school, parks and all that downtown Wilmette has to offer, but you don't have to tell your guests the address, just tell them to look for the cutest house on the block!
