One of the most desirable streets of Evanston, Park Place was likened to "the boulevards of Paris" at the time properties were first being sold here. With expansive parkways leading to each front door, this quiet residential enclave now takes the place of where cable cars historically ran. This 1953 Hemphill brick colonial has undergone an extensive remodeling + addition in 2018, almost doubling the size of the home. A flagstone pathway welcomes you to this well-appointed 4BDR/5.5BTH which sits on a rare wooded 75x150 oversized lot filled with mature evergreens. Open and light-filled, this home invites the outdoors in from all angles with wall-to-wall glass French doors putting a spotlight on the central deck, accessible from all points on the main floor and perfect for entertaining. Unique finishes throughout include some minimalist touches: white neutral paint, hardwood floors and wrought iron detailing. The foyer is the perfect landing point leading to the large sunken living room punctuated by gorgeous bay windows and a woodburning/gas starter fireplace with brick surround. Step up to the cozy family room featuring a coffered ceiling, floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall shelf/ TV built-in, textured faux grass cloth wallpaper. Kitchen showcases exposed brick backsplash, 7' island with sink, bay window embracing the breakfast nook, built-in desk with rustic repurposed wood top, floor to ceiling cabinets. Mudroom includes built-in cubbies with cabinet and closet storage galore that also houses a second storage fridge. Easy-access attached 2-car garage, essential in our climate.

Powder room is an oasis with dark custom paneling and luxe wallpaper ceiling detail adds extra punch. 4 bedrooms + 4 bathrooms on second floor - 3 of which are en suite! Wide hallway also leads to designer wall-papered laundry room with four custom built-in laundry hampers and hanging racks. Plenty of counterspace for folding.
