Welcome to 1504 Elmwood-a beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath home tucked on one of the most charming cobblestone streets in the heart of Wilmette. Just steps from downtown shops, dining, schools and parks, this location offers the best of North Shore living with true walkability to everything. Inside, the home's effortless flow and natural light creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace opens to a formal dining room adorned with rich millwork. At the heart of the home is a stunning open-concept kitchen and family room-fully renovated in 2008-featuring Taj Mahal quartzite counters, an expansive island with Urban Archaeology lighting, Thermador fridge, Sub-Zero freezer, and a 6-burner Wolf range. This space seamlessly connects to the sunny family room and extends out to a back deck and fully fenced yard, ideal for indoor-outdoor living. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with a built-out walk-in closet and an updated en-suite bath with separate tub and shower. The additional bedrooms share a beautifully updated hall bath. Additional highlights include an attached mudroom, newer windows (2019), a built-in outdoor grill, cozy firepit area, and a newer two-car garage (2007) with party door access. An unfinished basement with tons of potential to create additional living space-it currently provides laundry room, workout space and tons of storage space. All this in a highly sought-after McKenzie Elementary location and nationally ranked New Trier High School. Don't miss this rare blend of charm, comfort, and convenience!
