Property Description
Located in the heart of Winnetka and within the highly sought-after Crow Island School District, this impeccably maintained 5-bedroom, 3.1-bath home checks every box. Thoughtfully reimagined and beautifully updated, the first floor offers exceptional flow, abundant natural light and timeless finishes throughout. At the center of the home is the stunning kitchen, completely gutted and renovated in 2022 with top-of-the-line finishes and a thoughtful design. A large island serves as the heart of the kitchen and gathering space, while the chef's appliances and custom high-end cabinetry make it as functional as it is beautiful. The kitchen opens seamlessly to the family room, creating the perfect space for everyday living and entertaining. The screened porch offers great indoor/outdoor living. The first floor also features a gracious dining room, inviting living room, refreshed mudroom, stylish powder room, and exceptional custom millwork throughout. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms and two full baths. The oversized primary suite has generous closet space and a beautifully appointed bath featuring dual vanities, a separate shower, and soaking tub. Three additional bedrooms are bright and airy, each with custom closet organizers. The lower level was largely renovated in 2023 and offers incredible additional living space with updated flooring, lighting, drywall, and expanded recreation areas. A fifth bedroom and full bath provide the perfect accommodations for guests, an au pair, or a private home office. The backyard offers great space for entertaining, kids playing and sunshine. The garage is oversized (2.5 spaces) and has extra depth for those suburban mom SUVs. Meticulously maintained and move-in ready, this exceptional home is ideally located just steps from town, train, parks, schools, and everything that makes Winnetka one of the North Shore's most desirable communities.
