Property Description
Nestled in the heart of Swainwood-one of Glenview's most coveted neighborhoods-1233 Swainwood Drive offers the perfect blend of timeless charm and modern luxury, all within walking distance to the train, vibrant downtown Glenview, The Glen, parks, Roosevelt Pool, library, shopping and dining. This beautifully renovated 4-bedroom, 4-bath home features approximately 3,200 square feet plus a finished lower level and showcases extensive rehabs completed in 2008 and a stunning 2023 remodel by North Shore Nest. Sun-filled living and dining spaces, rich hardwood floors, plantation shutters, custom millwork and built-ins set the tone throughout, while the designer gourmet kitchen shines with SubZero, Wolf and Miele appliances, new butcher block counters, Perrin & Rowe faucet, custom cabinetry and updated lighting. The flexible first-floor office/sitting room with fireplace and French doors provides a private retreat, and the generous family room opens to a flagstone patio and professionally landscaped .33-acre yard by Architectural Gardens. Upstairs, the serene primary suite features a fireplace, spa bath with steam shower and walk-in closet, complemented by three beautifully appointed bedrooms with charming window seats. The finished lower level adds exceptional living with a recreation room, exercise space, wine cellar, full bath and ample storage. Thoughtful improvements-including a 2021 roof, rebuilt chimney, new sump pumps and a new Carrier furnace-enhance peace of mind, while award-winning Districts 34 and 225 (Lyon, Pleasant Ridge, Springman and Glenbrook South) complete this exceptional offering in one of Glenview's most walkable, sought-after locations.
