Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined street in Kenilworth Gardens, this beautifully updated Colonial blends timeless architecture with modern comforts in one of Wilmette's most sought-after neighborhoods. Set behind a generous front lawn, the home offers classic curb appeal and thoughtfully refreshed interiors that honor its original character. The sun-filled living room features a wood-burning fireplace, while the formal dining room is ideal for entertaining. A bright sunroom provides the perfect space for morning coffee, reading, or a home office. The updated kitchen is both stylish and functional, complemented by a conveniently located powder room. Rich hardwood floors and updated designer lighting add warmth and sophistication throughout the main level. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms and a beautifully updated hall bath overlooking the fully fenced backyard. The partially finished lower level offers a recreation room with new carpeting, dedicated laundry, and abundant storage. An attached one-car garage adds everyday convenience. Located within the Harper Elementary, Wilmette Junior High, and New Trier High School districts, the home is just minutes from Thornwood Park, the Metra, downtown Wilmette, and Lake Michigan beaches. With its welcoming community, walkability, and exceptional location, this is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy North Shore living.
