Description
A vintage three-story treasure, one block to lake and park, ideally-close to commuter conveniences, shops and the historic lakefront district -- features a great updated kitchen with stainless appliances, quartz counters and access to an airy back porch. The formal parlor-style living room with its bay window opens to the separate dining room with a two-sided fireplace that's shared with the adjacent kitchen overlooking the backyard. On the second floor, the master bedroom features a sitting or dressing room with a wall of closets. Add three more family bedrooms on the second floor and a huge third floor bonus space with a sunny skylight and limitless possibilities -- maybe used as a den, office, playroom or expand into the adjacent unfinished space for a huge master bedroom suite (Note: The third floor bonus room is currently not heated but has a window air conditioning unit)! This wonderful classic offers endless options, a truly picturesque storybook charmer! Note: The lot is non-conforming. Please check with City of Evanston for permissible modifications. and/or changes.
