Property Description
FABULOUS home and COACH HOUSE in go-to McKenzie school district is waiting for you to call it "HOME". Noted and award winning architects Morgante-Wilson designed this gut rehab and expanded historic home and coach house. Once the Wilmette Village Hall, and once situated on the current site of today's village hall, the structure was moved to 625 Park Ave in 1911. The gut rehab and rebuild and expansion were done in both 2003 and 2018. There are 6 total bedrooms with one of them being in the coach house - 5 in the main house with one full en-suite bedroom on the first floor. Beautiful living room with fireplace and soaring ceilings opens to the dining room with curved wall and lovely modern window pane moulding. Kitchen complete with butlers pantry is on-trend with white shaker cabinets and island with seating and large table eating area - all opening to the light-filled family room which overlooks the 200ft deep back yard. (More on that later). The second floor includes the master suite with walk-in closet and three spacious secondary bedrooms with one of them including a separate homework room (also great for an office). Second floor also includes a large laundry room. The basement is perfect for entertaining and family fun with a large rec room, an exersice room, a half bath and a theater room. The coach house is outstanding! Built over a 2 1/2 car heated garage, the coach house was rebuilt in 2018 - again with design by Morgante-Wilson - and is totally on-trend with a living room, eating-area, white updated kitchen, full bedroom and full bath. The oversized back yard is wonderful and includes a brick deck with outdoor fireplace. Oh! Don't forget the charming front porch where you can take a moment from your busy lives and watch the world go by. This home is outstanding! Walk to schools, train, town, library, restaurants, etc, and all that downtown Wilmette has to offer. Do not miss this one!!!!!!
