What a fabulous opportunity to own a wonderful home in such an incredibly convenient location! It's loaded with character and charm. You'll enjoy siting on your welcoming front porch overlooking the garden and heading to dinner in Downtown Evanston-just blocks away. Stroll through nearby Deering Meadow & along the lakefront. This smartly updated home is a terrific combination of vintage & new: fir floors, high ceilings, glass-panel doors, plantation shutters, woodburning fireplace, more. The huge foyer is great for greeting your guests, or as a quiet place to sit & read. The bright living room has ample space for a dining room table. The current owners opened up space between kitchen and family room/den area. There are updated baths on all 3 levels and the third floor is a nice surprise with 2 additional bedrooms, bamboo floors and even a Juliet balcony. The kitchen leads to a wonderful deck overlooking a beautifully landscaped backyard. Huge 2.5 car heated garage with loft for storage or workspace, plus 1 outside spot. Clean, dry basement with 2 sump pumps. Newer copper pipes, 200 amp electric and hot water heater. High efficiency furnace new in 2021. Zoned central air & newer tilt-in windows. Master suite with dressing area, his/her bath vanities. Add rear stairs & rent the 3rd floor if you desire. Loads of storage and such close proximity to El, Metra, Northwestern University, downtown restaurants and shopping.
