Property Description
Step into the timeless charm of this European-inspired 1904 Evanston home, offering 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths across three beautiful levels of living space. Nestled on tree-lined Hinman Avenue just blocks from the lakefront, beaches, shops and restaurants, this single family residence blends vintage charm with modern comfort, including updated baths and a beautiful custom kitchen. Enter the home from the wide, welcoming front porch and spacious foyer that leads to a 4-season sun-room and large living room with fireplace, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. Large windows bring in abundant natural light and neighborhood views. The beautifully designed kitchen, large pantry, and gorgeous formal dining room surrounded by windows provide wonderful cooking and entertaining space. The home has been beautifully designed with flexible space on each level. The second floor features a lovely primary bedroom with en-suite bath, large closet, and Hinman Avenue views. 2 additional bedrooms and updated bath are also on the second level, and one bedroom has an attached bonus room perfect for an office or sitting room. The third floor has 2 large bedrooms, full bath and large hallway closet. One bedroom is currently used as a spacious office. The full basement offers plentiful storage and the home includes a one-car garage and easy street parking. Please note there is a small brick terrace in the back of the home, but no room to expand the garage and no rear garden. The front garden is lovely and the front porch is perfect for enjoying the outdoors. A wonderful opportunity to own a charming, move-in-ready home in one of Evanston's most desirable lakefront neighborhoods.
