Home Details
Perfectly positioned just steps from Gillson Beach and right off Sheridan Road, this classic red brick Colonial delivers timeless style in a prime location. Thoughtfully renovated, the home blends clean lines and a serene palette of soft hues with preserved original details, striking a rare balance between vintage warmth and today's modern lifestyle. Inside, original leaded glass windows and doors meet Ann Sacks tile, Visual Comfort lighting, Kallista hardware, and luxe stones and marbles-elevating the home with a perfectly refined, designer curated touch. Welcoming foyer opens into the formal living room anchored by a crisp white FP w/ a natural wood mantel flanked by built-in cabinets with leaded glass doors showcasing the beautiful craftsmanship. Living room flows seamlessly into the large dining room accented with white wainscoting, detailed crown molding, and sun-filled sitting area with original restored terracotta tile floors & oversized windows framing the lush backyard. Open family room to kitchen space anchors this special inviting space with direct access to the patio overlooking the privately lush backyard. Sunlight pours across the expansive island, topped in striking white quartzite with soft gray veining with bar seating for 5 with custom Plain & Fancy white cabinetry, s/s appliances, and Ann Sacks textured backsplash making this space as functional as it is stylish. The built-in breakfast nook with bench seating creates the perfect corner for casual meals while French doors lead outside to the back deck for easy entertaining. Chic powder room off the family room & sleek mudroom off the kitchen connects to the rare attached 2-car garage making this a dynamite feature of this home. Completely redone 2nd floor with 4 bedrooms including the ultra luxe primary suite with oversized bedroom, newly remodeled spa bath with dual floating vanities outfitted in quartz c-tops, RH fixtures, walk-in shower in Ann Sacks bricked tile and huge walk-in closet. 3 additional bedrooms share crisp hall bath w/ double vanity, warm wood cabinetry, sleek gray subway tile & glass-enclosed shower/tub combo. The 3rd floor retreat space is ideal with an optional office/playroom plus a private bedroom with full bath perfect for guests or extended family. Even the sunlit LL expands the living space with a large recreation area, laundry, utilities, and ample storage. Set on a 80 ft wide lot w/mature landscaped backyard this home hits all marks as it's turn key perfect in a very coveted East Wilmette location. Walk to town for a burger at the newly opened Small Cheval or walk down to the newly redone Plaza Del Lago for lunch to Space 519 after your peaceful morning walk on the beach. This is exactly why you leave the city or choose to upgrade-quintessential North Shore living at its finest!
