If you’re looking for the perfect, charming and cozy home for your family in South Evanston, this is it. Not only is it in an ideal location, it is well-built, updated, move in ready, and so many special characteristics. From the open concept, beautiful hardwood floors throughout, a built-in bar and entertaining basement, fenced in large, hosta lined back yard to the large bedrooms and office space, you’ll have plenty to love. There are 3 spacious bedrooms and a large home office that can be converted to a 4th bedroom. One bedroom has a custom built in window seat. Use the large walk-in shower or the shower/tub bathroom. The large laundry room comes with washer/dryer, freezer/fridge and wet sink with so much storage. The kitchen has a walk in pantry and a reverse osmosis drinking water faucet. Lights are all on dimmers, a Nest thermostat is installed. There isn’t anything you need to do since the appliances are two years old, the windows and gutters are 3 years old, roof and garage are 14 years old. You’ll find an enormous amount of storage throughout the house. The three season room can be a mudroom, sitting room, library, or whatever you desire. The 2.5 car garage has shelving units and a work bench plus extra storage in the rafters. You’ll be walking distance to the CTA and Metra, shops and restaurants, great schools, parks and the lake.
