Nestled on a tree-lined street just steps from downtown Wilmette, the Metra, and sought-after McKenzie Elementary, 411 Prairie Avenue is a rare find that blends timeless charm with thoughtful modern updates. This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2.1-bathroom home offers a bright, inviting layout with gleaming hardwood floors and abundant natural light throughout.

A main floor powder room adds convenience, while upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, including one with an attached bonus room-ideal for a playroom, office, or oversized closet-plus a full bath with classic finishes and laundry. The fully finished lower level adds even more functional space, with a large recreation room, a second full bath, a bonus room, and an additional laundry area-ideal for guests or flexible family living. Outside, the professionally landscaped yard features a large deck, raised garden beds, and a deep side-drive offering easy parking for three vehicles. With its unbeatable location, move-in ready condition, and warm, welcoming feel, 411 Prairie Avenue is a small gem in one of Wilmette's most walkable and vibrant neighborhoods.
