About This Home

Curb appeal, charm and a superb in-town location define this terrific, freshly painted center-entry Colonial with circular floor plan. Enjoy living just steps from downtown Wilmette with all the conveniences it offers including great restaurants, shopping, the Metra, Gillson Beach and both Central and St Francis Xavier schools. This wonderful home features high ceilings, refinished hardwood flooring throughout and architecturally interesting details. The grandly scaled living room with wood-burning fireplace and built-in shelves flows seamlessly into the formal dining room. Both rooms have access to the scene-stealing screened-in sun porch with skylight and easy access to the side yard. The eat-in kitchen was updated in 2008 and boasts plenty of counter space to complement the upper and lower cabinets. From the kitchen you can access the 2-car attached garage via the breezeway. There is a first floor bonus room that can be used as a family room, 4th bedroom or office with a full hall bath, rounding out the impressive first floor. The second floor offers three bedrooms, including a light-filled and spacious primary suite with two walk-in closets and a large private bath with separate water closet. Two nicely scaled hallway bedrooms share a hall bath. The lower level, with paneled walls and 7' ceiling height, includes a large recreation room, a wall of storage closets and a utility room with laundry. This very special home awaits its next owner to bring their own vision and to start creating the next generation of memories here.
