About This Home

Set on a spacious lot in a prime Wilmette location, 1718 Lake Avenue offers the perfect blend of vintage charm and thoughtful modern updates. With four generously sized bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and an expansive yard, this home is both comfortable and functional. Step inside to discover soaring ceilings and abundant natural light that flows through every room. The main level offers a seamless layout with large living and dining rooms, an updated kitchen featuring an incredible walk-in pantry, and a flexible bonus room that works beautifully as an office or playroom. Additionally, a full bathroom on the first floor provides convenience and flexibility. Every space feels bright, airy, and welcoming. Upstairs, the primary bedroom includes a lovely sitting area and dual closets. Three additional spacious bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a cozy office nook complete the second floor. The lower level features a large playroom and tons of storage space, providing both function and flexibility. Outside, the yard is truly something special-lush, level, and designed for both entertaining and everyday play. A two-car detached garage and a large parking pad add even more convenience. Located close to McKenzie Elementary, downtown Wilmette, the Metra, and all the best of the North Shore, this is a home that checks every box.
