This is a fully reimagined Georgian, taken down to the studs and expanded with a significant addition, now offering over 6,600 sq ft of finished interior space plus expansive outdoor living and entertaining space. The execution throughout is exacting, and the house presents as entirely turnkey. This home is designed with both form and function in mind. What distinguishes the property immediately is the flow. The open-concept layout is a celebration of space and light. The newly redefined kitchen and family room anchor the house, creating the central living environment from which the rest of the main level unfolds with remarkable ease. From there, the flow moves seamlessly into the breakfast area, formal dining room, formal living room with gas fireplace, private ground level office with bespoke cabinetry, and a first level bar with a refined, elegant character. The house opens effortlessly to a three-season screened porch and fully developed outdoor entertaining areas, extending the living space outward with ease. There is also a fully outfitted mudroom. Design, flow and light all working together to create a sense of harmony.

The lower level is comprehensive and exceptionally well executed, offering a full recreational suite including games room, gym, media room, laundry, extensive storage, and a dedicated golf simulator. Two separate staircases connect the main level to the lower level, allowing for both convenience and discretion. The grounds are a defining feature - A rare double lot measuring approximately 136' by 131'. Professionally designed landscaping, an updated irrigation system, extensive lighting, and a built-in outdoor kitchen create a setting that is both private and highly functional, increasingly rare for this pocket of Evanston. The versatile outdoor space caters to every desire; hosting formal occasions, enjoying quiet moments by the fire, or gathering with friends and family, each space feels warm, welcoming, and intentional. Additional features include a heated two car attached garage with epoxy flooring, fitted cabinetry, refrigerator, and integrated sound.
