Description

SHOWINGS THIS WEEKEND ONLY! OFFERS DUE SUNDAY, MAY 1st. Amazing value in highly sought-after location!! Magnificent renovation of fabulous North Shore residence with spectacular curb appeal situated on a large, professionally landscaped, sun-filled corner lot in the heart of East Kenilworth, a few short blocks to Lake Michigan. This 5 BR/4.1 BA home has been artfully reinvented from top to bottom to be "better than new" combining original architectural elements with all the features of a new construction home. No detail has been overlooked! Superb floor plan features gracious reception hall with handsome staircase, stunning formal rooms and beautifully designed crisp white & navy kitchen with custom cabinetry, high end appliances, fresh quartz countertops, large center island, and breakfast space with gorgeous light fixtures. This exceptional kitchen is the perfect gathering spot for family and friends and has a wonderful adjoining family room with lots of natural light, extra tall ceilings, custom built-ins and expansive windows and French doors overlooking the beautifully landscaped fenced-in front and side yards. Additionally, there are two great home office spaces on the 1st floor - a cozy library with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and a private sunroom/office with large windows and nice views of the yard. Upstairs, there are five bedrooms and four bathrooms, all on the second floor, including a serene primary suite with a gas fireplace, ample closet space, and an impeccably designed spa-like bath. Each bedroom is sunny and bright and uniquely designed with artistic flair! The very hip lower level includes a fun home theatre and cool wine room with bar plus plenty of storage! Ideally located just a short walk to the Joseph Sears School, New Trier, Kenilworth beach, Plaza Del Lago, parks and the Metra. Architectural design drawings are available for brand new two-car attached garage with mudroom or two-car detached garage with coach house.
