Welcome to the "blue" house nestled in the heart of walk to all Glencoe. Upon arrival, you are charmed by the beautiful landscape and curb appeal that recently was completely transformed from the new stone wall & widened stairs at the entrance, to a charming patio for two in front for your morning coffee or afternoon cocktail, a newer driveway, plus a brand new slate huge rear patio. This stately home invites you to appreciate the design, detail, updates and warmth that is associated with a quality construction that has been renovated, restored & improved over the last 100 years. The living room beams with light surrounded by windows with a wood burning fireplace. Step down into an extension of the living room that becomes the children's study and doubles as a front sun room. Opposite is a formal dining room with a summer porch adjacent drawing you to the spectacular fenced back yard, patio & screened gazebo. The Chef's kitchen is beautifully designed and surrounded by windows with outstanding use of the space for function and design. The side entrance brings you to a terrific mud room with a powder room off a door that leads to a fenced dog run with a brick patio and wrought iron gate. Up the stairs, off the landing is the first wonderful bedroom that doubles as an office with a Jack/Jill updated bath. The Master bedroom is very generous in size with a brand new private master bath. The two children's bedrooms are very large with window seats and glorious windows bringing in tons of light throughout the house. The third floor is the most incredible teen/guest suite with a private bath and incredible attic storage space that would be ideal to expand, if needed. Full finished basement includes a recreation/game room, a beautiful full bath, an updated wet bar with granite counters and white cabinets, a wine cellar, laundry and an exercise room. The two car garage completes the house with a new stone alcove between the house and the garage. Conveniently located walking distance to town, the Glencoe beach, walking & biking trails, Ravinia, the Botanic Gardens, schools, shopping and so much more. A treasure beyond words awaiting your visit to discover your dream home!
