Experience the best of Winnetka living on nearly an acre in one of the village's most picturesque and prestigious locations. Tucked away behind winding, tree-lined streets, this spectacular historic renovation sits proudly on nearly a full acre of beautifully landscaped grounds. Located on prestigious De Windt Road and walking distance to top-rated Crow Island Elementary, this fairytale-like property offers the rare combination of storybook charm and modern upgrades. Designer owned, this home is the perfect blend of timeless craftsmanship and high-end functionality. No detail was spared: a new shake composite roof, full exterior painting and tuckpointing, new HVAC and electrical systems, all-new bathrooms and plumbing, high-end appliances, and a fully finished lower level with flood control systems including drain tile, sump pump, and battery backup. The heart of the home is the chef's kitchen, where inset cabinetry, unlacquered brass hardware, and a showstopping La Cornue range create an atmosphere inspired by the English countryside. Casement windows open to the lush backyard, while a cozy breakfast nook with outswing doors connects seamlessly to an expansive bluestone patio-ideal for entertaining. A custom-designed pantry offers a second sink, second dishwasher, and a prep zone, all wrapped in a stunning Schumacher wall mural that continues into the elegant dining room-spacious enough to host dinner parties of any size. Restored original French doors lead from the dining room to a side yard perfect for croquet or al fresco evenings under the stars. On the main level, enjoy a classic living room with original fireplace and windows, a lacquered family room with black-and-white checkerboard marble floors, a designer powder room, and a custom mudroom. A stately office with its own fireplace completes the main level. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, each with custom millwork and beautiful finishes. The primary suite boasts two sets of beautiful custom closets and a generous primary bathroom featuring Ann Sacks zellige tile, freestanding tub, unlacquered brass fixtures and double shower. Second floor laundry added for ease and convenience. The lower level features a generous recreation area, plenty of storage and a fifth-bedroom option for guests. A heated two-car garage with new epoxy flooring rounds out the offering, connected to a gorgeous mudroom with custom cabinetry. An historic home on a one-of-a-kind lot. With oversized front, rear, and side yards, this property offers an extraordinary setting to enjoy outdoor living year-round. Whether it's garden parties, games of tag, or quiet mornings with coffee under the trees, this is more than a home-it's an experience.
