Property Description
Come one, come all to this beautifully updated and refreshed colonial-style house tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street. This home offers the rare combination of peaceful surroundings and an unbeatable location: walking distance to top-rated elementary and middle schools, and is in the New Trier High School district - consistently ranked among the best in the United States. Step into the welcoming entryway that flows easily to all parts of the house. A spacious family room offers endless possibilities - perfect for movie nights, recreation, or creative space. The updated kitchen features sleek Dekton countertops, newer appliances, refreshed cabinetry, and eat-in area with access to the separate dining room, the new back deck, or the mudroom/laundry area that leads to the attached 2-car garage. Off the large living room, you'll find a bright all-season sunroom - ideal for reading, relaxing, or morning coffee (or tea). A fully updated main-floor bathroom adds convenience and flexibility for guests or everyday living. Upstairs, the expansive primary ensuite with trey ceiling feels like a retreat, complete with double sinks, soaking tub, a large walk-in closet, two additional closets, and a charming Juliet balcony. Three additional generously sized bedrooms and an updated full bathroom complete the second floor - which enjoys its own heating and cooling system for added comfort and efficiency. Plus hardwood floors throughout the house. The finished basement has also been fully updated and offers even more space for work, play, fitness, or storage. Outside, the huge yard is just the right size for relaxation or activities, opening out from the brand-new back deck. Conveniently located nearby the expressway and Metra station. All of this is nestled in a friendly, welcoming neighborhood - a short stroll to beautiful Crow Island Park, and minutes from the scenic Skokie Lagoons with miles of biking, walking, and running trails. Peaceful living with world-class schools, nature, and community right at your doorstep is your new home!
