Upon entering, you are greeted with defined spaces that flow seamlessly into one another, creating an open and inviting atmosphere. The main level features a living room, beautiful dining room and a fabulous family room that opens up directly to the gourmet kitchen. Chefs will love cooking in the kitchen equipped with high-end appliances (Wolf range, Bosch dishwasher) large island with seating and plenty of storage. Great sight lines from the kitchen to the newly Chalet landscaped backyard (all trees and plantings are newer). Pretty wrought iron staircase leads you to the second floor with Cathedral ceilings and wood beams adding character to every bedroom. The primary has a Carrera marble bathroom, while two additional bedrooms share a beautifully appointed hallway bathroom with double sinks, great subway tile and a Kohler soaking tub. The lower level offers even more living space, including a spacious rec room/playroom, a fourth bedroom with a full bath, and a bonus room that could serve as an office or potential fifth bedroom. The possibilities are endless! The garage was just extensively renovated (new doors, windows, garage door, lighting) and storage created above with staircase. Great location - a short walk to Award Winning Joseph Sears School (JK-8) and New Trier High School, the beach, Metra and Plaza del Lago Shopping. CHARM AND TURNKEY - YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS IT!
