Welcome to your sunny retreat on Cherry Street! This cheerful 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers a vibrant lifestyle in the sought-after Tree Streets. Current owners have taken great care and made many improvements to this warm and welcoming home. The curb appeal was enhanced with James Hardie siding, a reconfigured enclosed front porch, and new windows throughout much of the home. Hardwood flooring was added to the 2nd floor, sturdy wooden stairs built to the lower level which was refloored with luxury vinyl flooring, rec room was finished and 2 large windows added to bring in natural light. Most appliances have been recently replaced and the driveway was just sealed. Spacious kitchen opens to family room with a cozy fireplace and glass doors open to the large wooden deck that is perfect for coffee or barbecues. The expansive yard is fenced in with plenty of room for play and relaxation. The perfect location is walking distance to beloved Crow Island elementary, Skokie-Washburne schools, playgrounds, tennis center, and Winnetka's vibrant downtown restaurants and shops! Schedule a showing and make this home your happy place!
