Property Description

Perfect for Entertaining! 8,200 square feet of spacious, gracious living. This distinguished farmhouse has been thoughtfully expanded, exquisitely updated, and maintained. Just steps from Elmwood Dunes beach, walking distance to Plaza del Lago, the L and Metra trains, and Downtown Wilmette. Expansive 75'x196' lot features old growth, irreplaceable trees (including black walnut), professional landscaping, two decks (one with a gas grill hookup and the other built-in benches and a custom gas fire table), a fenced-in and irrigated garden, and a rare combination of an attached 2-car garage (no alley necessary!) and a detached 2.5-car garage. The backyard is perfect for a new swimming pool. Inside are 5 large bedrooms, 4.2 bathrooms, 2 fireplaces (one wood-burning with a gas starter), a 20' x 20' family room, and a southern light-filled chef's kitchen with a large island and eating area. The primary suite includes dual walk-in closets, a soaking tub, a steam shower, bidet, heated floors, and a private third-floor loft. Upstairs features a fully equipped exercise room with 13' peak ceilings, ballet barre, sauna, dance pole, skylights, and outdoor roof deck. The lower level features a 9' ceiling, a high-performance home theater with sound insulation, custom-built star ceiling, party lights, full bathroom, and a wet bar. There's also space for a large, fully loaded wood shop. This extraordinary home is a must-see! There are too many charming custom touches to list. The owners transformed every inch of this home to make it the perfect place to raise a family and entertain guests. They've done the work. It's ready for you to simply move in and enjoy! This unique home offers the best of North Shore living: historic character, custom amenities, and an unbeatable location!
