There are houses, and then there are homes...the kind that hold stories, gather laughter, and offer a quiet exhale at the end of the day. This timeless colonial has been just that, and now it's ready to welcome yours. Enter the front door through the vestibule into a gracious foyer that sets the tone for what's ahead. The formal living room is adorned with molding, offers a fireplace as well as built ins and provides space for more than one seating area. The family room was added to the original house and features hardwood floors, beams and a brick fireplace. The sunroom provides a warm sunny getaway, vaulted ceiling and a third fireplace. The dining room is where milestones will be toasted, and is adorned with panel molding, a corner built and ample room to host all the family gatherings. A walk-through bar ensures seamless flow into the light-filled kitchen-the heart of the home where everyone gathers. From here, a pass-through loaded with storage cabinets leads to the back door and garden. Upstairs you'll find the primary suite and three generous bedrooms; one of which is a tandem. The third floor features hardwood floors, two additional bedrooms and a bath featuring a classic clawfoot tub. In the basement, a workshop waits for projects big and small, while the laundry and storage spaces keep life humming in the background. Step outside and the story continues: a stone patio shaded by greenery and an envious perennial gardens. The detached two and a half car garage has a separate room for your toys and tools. Located just blocks from town, train, schools and parks, this home offers the perfect combination of historic charm, functional living, and an unbeatable Winnetka location. This is more than square footage. It's a home with a soul-ready to hold your story next.
