Looking for a beautifully built, spacious and gracious home that exudes character and charm AND is set in a phenomenal East Winnetka location just steps to the lake?! This stunning, colonial revival home seamlessly blends the best of exquisite architectural detailing both inside and outside with modern amenities and updates on it's 4 levels of phenomenal living space. The fabulous first floor with soaring ceilings, gorgeous millwork, and an abundance of natural light has hardwood floors and a versatile, circular floor plan. The gorgeous formal Living Room has a curved wall and the most beautiful fireplace with marble surround. Entertain in style in the adjoining Dining Room with columns and oversized windows. Have your morning coffee while checking out the weather in the sun filled Breakfast Room, which has 3 sides of divided light oversized windows and French doors to the deck. Ina Garten would love to whip up her culinary delights in the gorgeous, newer kitchen with exposed brick and Grasscloth wallcovering. It features Sub Zero and Miele appliances, an island and Silestone countertops. The incredibly spacious Butler's Pantry with storage galore is conveniently located between the Kitchen and Family Room. An perfectly located Office, Powder Room and Mudroom complete the first floor.

The oversized Primary Suite will wow you with it's huge walk in closet and beautiful Primary Bath with heated flooring. 2 Bedrooms are ensuite and 2 share a hall bath. All have good closet space. And that's not all... head upstairs to the 3rd floor, which has awesome treetop views from 2 very nice sized rooms, a hall bath, closets and attic space with storage and mechanicals. Need a 6th or 7th BR? Check. Otherwise use the rooms as you see fit- a 2nd Office? An Exercise Room? An Au Pair Suite? Take your pick- the space is fabulous. The lower level has a carpeted Rec Room with walk out access, a laundry room, another half bath and Mechanicals/ Storage space. And what's not to love about the outdoor life at 527 Cherry- catch the lake breezes from the deck and bluestone terrace, and enjoy views of pretty landscaped yard just steps from Sheridan Road and blocks to beaches, parks, Greeley School and New Trier HS and vibrant downtown Winnetka. There's so much to love here- a pristinely maintained, beautifully built and updated home that radiates charm and character throughout in the most fabulous location. A truly special home!
