Property Description
Charming Glencoe Residence with Timeless Appeal at 511 Woodlawn Avenue. Welcome to where architectural charm and thoughtful updates meet in a spacious and beautifully maintained 5 bedroom/3.1 bathroom Glencoe home. Solid craftsmanship is evident from the moment you enter the wide foyer, with beautiful hardwood floors stretching throughout the main level. The oversized living room invites relaxation with its stately fireplace and opens to a bright and airy sunroom-ideal for morning coffee or quiet reading. A separate dining room, perfectly positioned off the kitchen, sets the stage for effortless entertaining. The chef's kitchen boasts custom cabinetry, abundant counter space, a custom pantry closet, and premium appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf double oven, Bosch dishwasher, and a Wolf cooktop on the island with breakfast bar seating. Just beyond, the family room is flooded with natural light and accented by striking wood beams and walls of windows, offering seamless access to a professionally landscaped yard that feels like a private English walled garden with flowering pear trees, Arbor Vitae, and seasonal perennials. Upstairs on the second level, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, including a main bedroom with ensuite access and two others connected by a Jack and Jill bath. The finished attic serves as a private retreat featuring the primary suite with a sunny sitting room, built-ins, dramatic wood beams, and a recently updated ensuite with a walk-in shower and double vanity. The unfinished basement houses laundry and provides a blank canvas for your customization-rec room, gym, wine cellar-the choice is yours. Combining historic charm with modern amenities and an unbeatable location, 511 Woodlawn Avenue is ready to welcome you home. Situated just steps from Hubbard Woods, parks, top-rated schools, and the lakefront, this residence offers the perfect blend of character, comfort, and convenience.
