    What's special

    Entertaining basementEnormous amount of storageOffice spaceLarge bedroomsWalk in pantryThree season roomOpen concept
    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.

    What the owner loves about this home
    We have taken a traditional 1950’s home with orange brick home and transformed it to an updated, cozy, spectacular home. We are the third owner after 70 years so it has been well maintained.
