1506 Lake Ave., Wilmette, IL 60091

Don't be fooled. Perched on Lake, nestled amidst the trees, with an unassuming curb presence, this lovely home warmly welcomes you in while boasting an interesting history. Originally built as an Arlington model no. 145 from the Sears kit home collection, marketed as a "Colonial House with a Bungalow Effect." The enclosed front porch invites you to sit a spell, relax and watch the world pass by. Step inside to enjoy the first floor circular flow - from entry foyer to the living room with woodburning fireplace, to the spacious dining room, through to the family room with patio doors opening to the rear deck overlooking the huge backyard, and completing the circle in the spacious, updated kitchen adjacent to the under-stairs powder room. Stairs lead you up to the 3 bedrooms and 2 baths of the 2nd level or down to the full, dry unfinished basement. Outdoor lovers will truly enjoy just hanging out in the rear yard on the deck or patio. Terrifically located kitty-corner to Vattman Park and a short walk to Metra commuter trains put you within easy reach of the best of downtown Wilmette. See for yourself why the sellers moved in years ago and enjoyed a lengthy stay delighted by this home.
