Beautiful brick home backing up to gorgeous Wilmette Golf Club. The unbeatable view from the back patio overlooking the 10th hole is just the icing on the cake for this expanded colonial. This home checks all your boxes.... spacious primary suite with double walk-in closets and spa like bathroom, 3 additional bedrooms (including another ensuite) with 2 more full bathrooms upstairs. Attached 2 car garage, well equipped "eat-in" kitchen with peninsula seating and lots of counter space, walk-in pantry, formal dining and open family room both overlooking lush backyard with golf course views. Basement has finished "hangout space" as well as a well-organized laundry room and a multipurpose nook for art room, office, work area etc. This home has been nicely updated and meticulously maintained. Wilmette Golf course offers so much more than just golf in the warm months.... cross country skiing in the winter, fun club house open to the public for grabbing a bite to eat and drink, and allows for long private walks in the off seasons. Location is great, close to some of the best schools on the NorthShore, easy highway access and amazing Forest Perserve paths just across the street. This is an A+ house!
