Welcome to this beautiful 1931 Colonial home, situated on a coveted tree-lined street in popular NW Evanston. Steeped in timeless charm and character, this home has been lovingly maintained by the same owners for nearly 50 years. The main floor greets you with an inviting foyer, impressive staircase, stunning parquet hardwood floors and original plaster moldings. The large living room, anchored by a stately wood-burning fireplace with its original mantle, is flanked by french doors that lead to a spacious and inviting sunroom. The formal dining room is perfect for hosting, illuminated by designer light fixtures and abundant natural light flowing from the adjoining sunroom. The kitchen has abundant storage with white cabinets with premium storage solutions, stainless steel luxury appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Thermador gas cooktop, double ovens and ample prep space. The kitchen opens to a bright breakfast room addition with vaulted ceilings and enjoys serene views of the beautifully landscaped backyard. A private office with built-ins and a gas fireplace offers the ideal work-from-home space or cozy den. The charming powder room featuring a cool original sink completes this level. Upstairs, each of the 4 bedrooms has an ensuite bath! The spacious primary suite provides a serene retreat, with two walk-in closets, an abundance of natural light, and a remodeled spa-like bath featuring a roll-in shower and separate soaking tub. Plenty of closet space throughout the home enhances its functionality. The large unfinished basement is ready for your ideas whether you're adding a rec room or additional bedrooms.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
