Exceptional, architecturally interesting home situated on a beautifully landscaped 90x145 lot on a prime tree-lined block in NW Evanston. Views of the seasonally colorful gardens and koi pond are on display from every first floor window and can be enjoyed from a stone patio or screened porch nearly year round. And that's just the outside! The inviting living room with fireplace and built-in bookcases is great for entertaining. The dining room (currently featuring a grand piano) leads to the custom kitchen - with great counter space, Gaggeneau and Sub-Zero appliances and open to the sun room/family room addition with walls of windows overlooking the gardens, patio and yard. Also on the first floor is the rare den/office/4th bedroom with full bathroom with walk in shower - versatile for so many uses but especially great for those in need of that elusive first floor bedroom/bath. The second floor features three large bedrooms plus a cozy office and incredibly cool vintage bathroom. If you wanted to add a second bath there are options - or you could finish the walk up third floor with full staircase. Semi-finished basement has rec room with bar, storage and laundry. So many options for expansion, or enjoy this wonderful home as it is. Truly a pleasure to show and even better to see in person! Showings start Friday 3/7 at 10am.
