Property Description

This beautifully renovated East Wilmette brick home blends timeless charm with fresh, sophisticated design in one of the area's most coveted walk-to-everything locations. A welcoming front porch sets the tone for the thoughtfully reimagined interior, where expansive living spaces flow seamlessly from the gracious living room to the stunning kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, high-end finishes, and an elegant dining area perfect for everyday living and entertaining alike. The sun-filled den/office overlooks the lush southern backyard. A convenient mudroom and powder room are also located on the first floor. Upstairs, the exceptional new primary suite offers a spacious walk-in closet and a luxurious spa-inspired bath, while two additional bedrooms (one with a fireplace) and a beautifully appointed custom hall bath complete the second floor. Ceiling heights throughout are amazing! The third floor provides incredible flexibility with a dramatic beamed-ceiling 'great room' and an additional bedroom or private office. The finished lower level adds even more living space with a bright rec room plus guest bedroom/office, full bath, and abundant storage. Outside, the fully fenced backyard offers wonderful green space and easy access to the two-car garage. Ideally located just moments from town, train, top-rated schools, Lake Michigan, and beloved Gillson Beach, this is East Wilmette living at its best.
