Property Description
Prairie-Style Beauty in Prime NE Evanston Location Step into timeless charm with this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom stucco home, ideally located in highly sought-after northeast Evanston. From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch and professionally landscaped yard set the tone for this warm, character-filled residence. Enter through a solid oak front door into a spacious foyer featuring a stunning staircase and rich vintage details, including high ceilings, crown molding, leaded-glass windows, and gleaming wood floors. The open floor plan includes a large family room-originally the dining room-anchored by a cozy fireplace and now seamlessly connected to the beautifully renovated eat-in kitchen. The eat-in kitchen showcases custom cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. The 2nd floor has three bedroom and a full bathroom. Third floor retreat is perfect as a bedroom, playroom, or recreation room. The finished basement offers even more living space with a full bath, office, and ample storage. Outside, enjoy a sweet, private backyard with a paver patio-ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Additional highlights include a newer roof, furnace, and central A/C. A rare blend of vintage charm and modern updates in a premier walkable location. Train-lovers take note-this home is steps to the "el" train with easy access to the Metra. Located just blocks from Lake Michigan, Northwestern University, Evanston Hospital, Canal Shores Golf Course, and the shops and restaurants of Noyes Street, with easy access to downtown Evanston and Central Street. Note: the home has no garage and is landlocked-so no possibility of adding a garage.
