Nestled on a beautiful tree lined street in a sought after Evanston neighborhood, 2025 Bennett blends classic architecture with smart modern upgrades. The symmetrical brick facade-with crisp white trim, black shutters and energy saving solar panels-sits behind manicured hedges and mature trees, giving the home timeless curb appeal. Step inside to a sun drenched living room where gleaming hardwood floors, crown molding and recessed lighting frame a handsome wood burning fireplace flanked by built in shelves. Glass panel doors open to a cozy sunroom wrapped in warm paneling, perfect for reading or enjoying morning coffee with views of the garden. A formal dining room under elegant lighting flows to the kitchen, featuring maple cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar that's ideal for casual meals; a pass through keeps the cook connected to guests. The gallery style staircase with track lighting leads up to four restful bedrooms, providing endless flexibility for guests, offices or playrooms. The primary suite feels like a retreat with its vaulted ceiling, clerestory windows and spa inspired bath boasting a jetted tub, separate glass enclosed shower and dual vanity. Additional baths have been thoughtfully renovated with floating vanities, mosaic tile and modern fixtures. Outside, the private yard is an oasis: a brick paver patio shaded by towering evergreens and screened by trellises offers space for alfresco dining, while lush perennial beds invite gardeners and birdwatchers alike. With a detached garage, central air, solar panels for efficiency and an unbeatable location near Central Street shops, Metra, CTA and top Evanston schools, this special home delivers gracious living and modern comforts in one of Evanston's most beloved communities. New chimney (2024), Copper water line to street (2024), Two HVAC systems (2025 & 2015), New Roof (2021) and Sunrun Solar Panels (2021) leased for $65/month.
