This home is a gardener's delight, filled with magnificent trees, flowers, and nestled on a one-third acre on a quiet cul-de-sac. An elegant Colonial, it has been both well maintained and enlarged and is in a fabulous location: an easy walk to all K-8 grade schools plus Wilmette's Community Playfield, with its tennis and pickleball courts, tot lot and sports activities! Step inside the new front door with sidelights to a welcoming foyer, private office, living room and separate dining room which seats 8.
