Description

Don't miss this expanded center-entry colonial in the heart of Wilmette! Situated on a massive 57x187 lot, this classic home underwent a significant renovation in 2010 that included a 3-story addition, an attached 2-car garage, and so much more! With gorgeous hardwood floors, fantastic room sizes, 6 bedrooms, 5 1/2 baths, and over 4,300 square feet of living space, you will be hard-pressed to find or recreate anything like this spectacular home. The open concept kitchen and family room provide exceptional sightlines and flow for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs is a spacious primary suite with multiple closets, an en-suite bathroom, and work-from-home space. 4 additional bedrooms (2 en-suite) give everyone their own space or provide tremendous flexibility. The lower level offers a fantastic media room with a fireplace, 6th bedroom, playroom, laundry room, full bathroom, and tons of storage. A massive mudroom leads to the attached 2-car garage with an EV charger and even more storage. Outside is a paver patio and expansive backyard. 2236 Birchwood provides the perfect combination of classic finishes with modern amenities and features.
