Classic Northeast Evanston Home. This well-built home exudes pride of ownership, featuring gleaming hardwood floors throughout, newer windows, and graciously sized rooms. The welcoming foyer opens to a spacious living room that extends into the original sunroom and anchored by an attractive gas fireplace. A formal dining room, with bay windows, is perfect for hosting large gatherings, while the cozy den offers an ideal space for a first-floor office or TV room. The large eat-in kitchen boasts solid Hickory cabinetry, ample counter space, and a convenient prep area with a second sink. A first-floor laundry room and full bath adds everyday convenience. The well thought out second floor addition was built in 1995. The jumbo primary suite offers an en-suite bath with jetted tub and separate shower and two vanities, generous closet space, and a sitting area. Three additional bedrooms and a full hall bath complete the second level. Zoned heating with second floor mechanicals. The clean, versatile walk-out basement is perfect for a playroom, gaming, or recreation space, with plenty of storage and workshop areas. It also includes a bonus room and full bath. All systems are maintained and serviced. Beautiful back yard with nice deck. This corner home comes with a custom built 2-1/2-car two story garage with extra wide driveway. The garage comes with ample attached shelving on the first floor and a large second floor with skylights for storage or future other uses. The south facing garage roof comes with solar panels (owned) that receive ample sun exposure all year round. This home's location is unbeatable: just two blocks to the Metra, five blocks to the CTA, minutes to Evanston Hospital, the Canal Shores Golf Course, the new Ryan Field, and the shops and dining along Central Street. Many great public and private schools are convenient to this home. Move-in ready and filled with warmth-this is the kind of home you'll treasure for years to come.
