Filled with natural light, the home features thoughtful updates throughout, including central heating and air conditioning. The main level showcases high ceilings, hardwood floors, and a sun-drenched living room anchored by a charming wood-burning fireplace. A spacious dining room flows seamlessly into the kitchen, ideal for both daily living and entertaining. A welcoming front porch provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy the quiet tree-lined street. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms include a serene primary suite with a double vanity and walk-in shower. Remote-controlled skylights flood the second floor with sunlight, and second-floor laundry adds everyday ease. Private parking is available on a side pad with an outlet for EV charging, with the option for extra storage or parking through long-term rental of the two-car garage next door. The ivy-draped, fenced-in brick patio provides a beautiful private outdoor space for relaxing or entertaining. A rare opportunity to own a light-filled, beautifully updated home in one of Evanston's most coveted neighborhoods. Steps from the lakefront, Lighthouse Beach, neighborhood parks, and the vibrant shops along Noyes Street. With Northwestern University, downtown Evanston, the Purple Line, and Orrington Elementary School all within walking distance, this beautiful home offers a rare blend of charm and convenience.
