Description

Looking for a beautiful home in one of the best locations in East Wilmette, with wonderful outdoor space and flexible indoor space - here is the home for you! The curb appeal is unsurpassed, as this traditional home sits on a professionally landscaped 50' x 185' corner lot. Home has flexible spaces for our new world: large 3rd floor space is perfect private work space or great above grade play space. The large, lush yard with a fantastic back porch provides excellent outdoor space to dine, work, play and relax. Light-filled year-round, the first floor offers the sought after circular flow, as the bright living room with beautiful bay window and built-ins flows to the entertainment-sized dining room with a wet bar. French doors from the dining room and kitchen lead to a spacious family room with a wall of newer Marvin windows looking out onto the back yard, and leads to the porch. The gorgeous chef's kitchen showcases top of the line appliances including a double oven and ice maker. The eat-in bar and custom cabinetry provide ample storage and display and makes this space both current and functional. The second floor provides flexibility with four bedrooms, a large updated hall bath and the convenience of 2nd floor laundry. So much room in the generous master suite! Ample space for king sized bed and large sitting-room area. The new master bath is well appointed with marble topped double vanity and open shelving. Escape to the finished 3rd floor for work, play or 5th bedroom. Basement offers a rec room and abundant storage. In the heart of East Wilmette, you are steps from schools, the beach, Plaza del Lago and the vibrant 'downtown' village center. Now it is more important than ever to have a house you can call home. 835 Forest is the one!
