First time on market in 45 years - fabulous opportunity in Ideal SE Evanston location. This stately home is just blocks from Lake Michigan's scenic bike paths and beaches, Main Street's vibrant shops, restaurants, and cafes, Lincoln Elementary School, beautiful parks, and convenient trains to downtown Chicago. Welcoming center foyer leads to sun-filled living room anchored by a classic wood-burning fireplace with marble surround. Built-in shelving adds charm and functionality. A versatile tandem sunroom adjoins the living room and flows through French doors into the family room-perfect for gatherings or relaxing by a second fireplace. A large formal dining room accommodates a table for 12, perfect for formal entertaining. The updated eat-in kitchen with abundant storage and counter space is ideal for everyday living or entertaining. From the bright kitchen, sliding glass doors open to a generous deck and large, fully-fenced backyard-perfect for play and flower or vegetable garden. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom connects to an adjoining tandem room, offering flexible space for a walk-in closet, home office, sitting area, or nursery. The primary bedroom shares a bathroom with one of three additional bedrooms with potential to build out as a primary-en suite. There is another full second floor bathroom for added convenience. The third floor offers even more flexibility with a fifth bedroom, full vintage bathroom, and lots of extra storage-perfect for guests, a teen retreat, or a quiet home office. The unfinished basement has high ceilings and loads of potential for added living space. Original hardwood floors and a detached 2+ car garage round out this fabulous property. Home is an estate and being sold as-is.
