Property Description
Multiple Offers received. Highest and Best due by Monday, Oct 6 at 4pm. No escalation clauses please. Nestled on an expansive corner lot in south Evanston this oversized Georgian has much to offer, including its location on a cul-d-sac. Circular flow defines the home's first floor, highlighted by gleaming hardwood floors and cove ceilings and moldings in the living room and dining room. The spacious living room with a wood burning fireplace has pretty tree lined street views while connecting smoothly to the south facing dining room fit for large gatherings. French doors from the dining room open to a four-season heated porch lined with windows. It provides easy access to the wood deck and fenced yard. Enter the kitchen, with stainless steel appliances, either from the dining room or the entry hallway. A custom island here is the hub, providing additional counterspace for food prep and casual dining. Enjoy views over the yard from the kitchen sink windows. Upstairs, off a graceful landing, are three generously sized bedrooms, each with two exposures. The primary suite across the front of the house has a unique bathroom setup but there also is plenty of room to reconfigure to your preference. The second bedroom features a French door to a potential rooftop deck waiting for a refresh. This bedroom has ample space for a separate work/study/play area. Both the second and third bedrooms have walk-in cedar closets. The updated hall bathroom has a combo soaking tub with shower. Lower level access is off the entry foyer hallway. The partially finished basement with glass block windows offers opportunity for a redo based on your needs. The large lot also allows for expansion potential if the need dictates or major gardening opportunities. Location has easy access to the main east, west and north, south arterial streets, public transportation, and shopping. Home is AS IS.
