The main floor also includes a full bath and a fifth bedroom, well-suited as a guest suite or private office. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a balanced sense of scale and serenity. walk-in closet and a fully renovated bath, complete with a double vanity, soaking tub, and glass-enclosed shower-create a private retreat. Secondary bedrooms are similarly well-appointed, each with access to a bathroom featuring modern finishes, upgraded fixtures, and thoughtful storage. The lower level spans the full footprint of the home and includes multiple recreation and flex zones, a full bath, and a renovated laundry room with new appliances, work surfaces, and built-in storage.

Additional features such as a heated driveway, central vacuum system, and in-ground sprinkler system enhance both comfort and convenience. New hardwood flooring throughout, updated lighting, interior doors, trim, and a fully refinished heated garage with epoxy flooring complete the home's turnkey offering. The exterior has been refreshed with paint, landscaping, and masonry, while the home's classic footprint and curb appeal remain intact. Situated near the Metra, downtown Wilmette, parks, and top-ranked schools, this is a rare offering-equal parts refined and practical, with a complete renovation that requires no compromise.
