Absolutely wonderful 5 bedroom home in sought-after NW Evanston. There is so much to love about this home and location! Beautiful living room with wood-burning fireplace, arched doorways, and built-ins. The dining room is lovely with chair rail and built-in nook. The kitchen/family room is exactly what today's buyers are seeking - that open floor plan, including eat-in kitchen and breakfast bar. Family room has a gas fireplace and is filled with natural light. Very spacious kitchen has double ovens and granite countertops, an amazing space to entertain or watch over your family with this floor plan. Gorgeous updated primary suite with new and fabulous primary bath, gas fireplace, and two walk-in closets. Three secondary bedrooms on the second floor and renovated full bath. A third floor suite includes loads of versatile space (perfect for guests, au pair, teens): the fifth bedroom, full bath, an inviting reading corner, bonus room, "homework hallway", and finished storage. In addition to all of that wonderful above-grade space, the basement provides even more: a huge rec room with enough space for an exercise area, half bath, game room area, large laundry room, and more storage with pantry shelving. This home offers so much and in addition is loaded with great updates, including new windows throughout, roof, furnace with whole-house steam humidifier, front steps and entry, and 2.5 car garage. This is the one! **Seller requests a normal close date and a lease back through mid to late July**
