A rare opportunity in the heart of Winnetka, a beautiful newer-construction brick and stone home offering timeless design, modern comfort, and impeccable quality on every level. Built in 2005 and freshly updated for today's lifestyle, this residence combines elegant craftsmanship with the convenience of move-in readiness. Set on a beautifully landscaped and fenced lot just moments from parks, schools, the Metra, and Winnetka's vibrant town center! Graceful arched entry, architectural roofline with a new roof (2025), and warm curb appeal. Bright, open floor plan enhanced by high ceilings, custom millwork, and expansive windows that fill each room with natural light. A refined living room (could also work as a home office), a formal dining room with designer Fortuny lighting, French doors leading to the front porch, and butler's pantry, and a stunning gourmet kitchen with large center island, professional-grade appliances, and adjacent breakfast area. The kitchen opens seamlessly to a spacious family room with fireplace and French doors leading to the private brick paver patio and yard perfect for entertaining and everyday living. A nice powder room and practical mudroom with built-ins complete the space. Upstairs, the serene primary suite features a fireplace, walk-in closet, and spa bath with carrara marble double vanity, jetted tub, steam shower, and private water closet. Three additional bedrooms offer generous space and fitted closets, including one with an en-suite bath and two sharing a hall bath. The full, finished lower level provides an additional layer of luxury and flexibility with a large recreation room, stone fireplace, full bar, custom wine room, paneled office, 5th BR/exercise bedroom, and full bath. Modern systems include built-in speakers with sound system, dual-zoned HVAC, 200+ amp electrical service, a security and sprinkler system, central vacuum, humidifier, and backup sump pump. The home also features a private gated driveway, two-car garage, and beautifully landscaped yard.
