Welcome to this impeccably maintained cottage-style single family home located on one of Evanston's most desirable blocks. Nestled in the trees you'll find this gorgeous three bedroom, three bathroom home loaded with charm and character unlike anything you've seen. It starts with a curb appeal that has people literally stop in their tracks in front of the home to take it all in. From there you should expect to be impressed once you make your way into the home. An absolutely gorgeous, completely remodeled kitchen and dining combo with vaulted peak ceilings and a beautiful gas fireplace create a space that is perfect for entertaining. A welcoming den with matching peak vaulted ceilings that is wrapped in built-in book cases as well as a second fireplace offers a warm yet functional space perfect for work or to unwind with a great book; all the while enjoying the views of the front yard. A large, centrally located living room anchored by a third fireplace and additional built-ins acts as the heart of the home leading to two generous bedrooms and a shared beautifully remodeled bath. This home lives all on one floor and includes a large primary suite with ample storage and a double bath and shower room as well as an enormous family room that leads to the back yard. A fully finished basement with a built-in murphy bed, additional bathroom and work room complete the home. The outdoor space is breath taking with magical garden views and a two car detached garage. The location is unmatched within walking distance to Northwestern Campus and the beach, close proximity to dining and shopping in downtown Evanston and easy access to public transit right out your door. This home is not to be missed. What else can I say other than welcome home!
