Experience masterful design and timeless elegance in this completely renovated historic district home, where old-world charm meets modern luxury. From the moment you arrive, you'll be welcomed by a cozy front porch. The living space has been expanded by 1,000 square feet, creating a larger kitchen and family room. The former attic has been transformed with the addition of dormers, a new stairway, two extra bedrooms, and an additional bathroom. The renovation skillfully blends old and new elements, creating a harmonious balance throughout the home. This harmony extends to the outdoor spaces, where materials in the stone walkways, terrace, and boulder wall seamlessly flow from front to back, overlooking an open lawn. The professionally designed landscape, crafted by the owner who is a landscape architect, preserves as much open space as possible on the in-town lot. Enjoy the convenience of walking distance to shops, restaurants, schools, the train station, Lake Minear Beach, and two regional trails: the Des Plaines River Trail and the North Shore Bike Path. You're also within jogging or biking distance to multiple forest preserves, including Independence Grove and Old School Forest Preserves. This beautiful 4-bedroom, 3.1-bath home offers incredible character, grace, and ease for family living! Garage is brand new, just completed in January of 2024!
