Step into a beautifully transformed Hemphill home in Winnetka with private access to the Forest Glen neighborhood. Modern updates meet classic character following extensive 2023 renovations, including new electrical and plumbing, an improved floor plan, bay windows, and new exterior doors-while preserving original plaster crown moldings and the signature wrought-iron staircase. Thoughtful design and refined finishes carry throughout the home. The chef's kitchen features quartzite countertops, custom white oak cabinetry, and Wolf/Sub-Zero appliances, opening to a light-filled family room framed by black-trimmed windows and warm natural wood tones. Living and dining spaces center around a striking fireplace and layered lighting, creating an inviting yet sophisticated atmosphere. Upstairs, the serene primary suite offers a spa-inspired bath with a marble-slab shower, custom storage, and private balcony. Secondary baths are sleek, and all full bathrooms feature heated floors. The lower level extends the main living space with a refined theater lounge and custom wood-burning fireplace. A 2-car attached garage completes this rare turnkey home near top schools, Hubbard Woods, downtown shops, Metra, parks, and Tower Beach access. Now newly offered, this exceptional home presents a rare opportunity to experience modern Winnetka living.
