Description

Charm and timeless elegance abound in this stunning and expanded 1920's home. Located in a premier North-east Evanston location just steps from the lake/Lighthouse Beach as well as both the Metra and L trains. The flagstone/brick front steps lead to a curved covered entry and into the home. Expansive living room takes you back in time with beautiful French doors and original leaded glass windows including a beautiful bay window. Plenty of space for multiple sitting areas and the centerpiece of the room is the wood-burning fireplace with marble surround and stunning 1700's Adam's brother's mantle from Mathern Palace in Wales. A set of French doors leads to a family room addition from approximately 20 years ago with hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, and tons of windows overlooking the maturely landscaped backyard. Convenient powder room with ceramic tile and a white vanity. The expanded kitchen features wood cabinets, solid surface countertops, a big pantry, and stainless-steel appliances including Dacor cook-top, oven, and refrigerator. Breakfast room/mudroom space off the kitchen with a bay window overlooking the back of the property. Beautiful formal dining room with a chair rail, two original built-in corner buffet cabinets, and original leaded glass windows. The extra wide staircase leads to a spacious upstairs sitting room with hardwood floors, bookshelves, and walls of windows. The perfect hobby or reading room could also be converted to a fourth upstairs bedroom. The primary bedroom has been expanded offering an amazing retreat with hardwood floors, a walk-in closet, and en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower with bench, separate bubble tub, and oversized vanity. There are two additional bedrooms (one with a half bath) and a full hall bathroom with a shower with bench and mirrored medicine cabinet. Further expanding the living space is an incredible finished basement you usually do not find in a home of this vintage. Large family room area with overhead lighting, gas fireplace, lots of built-ins, and a wet bar with ample amounts of cabinets including some glass fronts and two beverage refrigerators. In addition, there is a laundry room with tons of storage/counter space, another full bathroom with a steam shower, and lots of storage.
