Calling all nature lovers! This charming home in NW Evanston is situated on nearly 1/3 acre with a private wooded area at the rear of the lot that has been undisturbed since Evanston was developed - and offers ample space for exploration and gatherings around the campfire. The front and side yard features a native garden and the fenced yard includes a patio for outdoor enjoyment. Inside, the delightful home exudes warmth with many original features intact. The welcoming living room is surrounded by windows and overlooks tree-lined Woodbine Avenue. The formal dining room leads to the vintage eat-in kitchen with a fun green eco-friendly linoleum floor and a new Bertazzoni induction range. Tucked in the corner of the first floor is a home office with south and west windows offering streaming sunlight all day. Upstairs you will find three bedrooms, each with its own character plus a hall bath with a vintage clawfoot tub as the centerpiece. An unfinished basement offers abundant storage. Improvements include roof, electrical upgrades and 20 newer windows on the first floor. The detached 2 car garage is large and has a convenient driveway off of Jenks. Located on a prime block (which has Evanston's only 2 day block party each summer), and just steps to both Torgerson Park as well as the newly renovated McCullough Park, 2728 Woodbine is just 2 blocks to Metra, the Central Street shops and restaurants. Welcome home!
