Beautifully renovated, recently refreshed, and transformed for today's luxury living, this iconic home sits on a gorgeous ~half-acre on one of East Wilmette's most prestigious blocks. Behind the stately iron fence, a wraparound front porch welcomes you into a home where no detail has been overlooked. Following a 2005 renovation and a masterful 2009 expansion, this residence seamlessly blends old-world craftsmanship with modern amenities. The NuHaus kitchen, crowned by an impressive skylight, anchors the home with its professional-grade appliances and views of the lush outdoor spaces. The expansion added a butler's pantry, mudroom, second half-bath, lower level with a recreation room and full bath, and a three-car garage. Outdoor living is elevated by a private bluestone terrace and upper-level patio with grilling station. Original architectural details-such as the grand wooden staircase, hardwood floors, and leaded-glass windows create a timeless ambiance, while modern updates provide every convenience. The second floor offers four bedrooms, including a primary suite with a marble bath and custom walk-in closet, and a second laundry room. The versatile third level includes additional rooms for bedrooms, offices, or guest space, along with a full bath. Seller has never used living room fireplace but den and family room fireplaces are working. Even so, fireplaces/chimneys transferred as is. Ideally located a stone's throw to Lake Michigan, the train, downtown Wilmette, and in the coveted Central Elementary and New Trier school districts, this home is a phenomenal offering for those seeking a luxurious and convenient lifestyle.
