431 Washington Ave

Welcome home to this fabulous go-to neighborhood! Lovely red brick 6-bedroom home with fantastic curb appeal is waiting for you to call it yours....and on the street everyone loves! Hear the waves and walk to Lake Michigan, Gillson Beach/Park, the Wilmette harbor, Central and St. Francis elementary schools, the last "El" stop on the Purple line, the Metra, Plaza del Lago and downtown Wilmette. Wow! And as for this wonderful home...Gracious Georgian home with fabulous square footage! The foyer welcomes you in as does the pretty and spacious living room with fireplace. Off the living room is a great alcove with built-in bookshelves for a small office or homework area or sitting area. Large sunroom off the living room is versatile and could be a wonderful family room as it is used today or a home office or even dining room should the next home owner wish to switch some rooms around to fit their own lifestyle. Dining room off kitchen is wonderful for entertaining. Kitchen overlooks the lovely newly landscaped back yard and includes updated stainless appliances and granite countertops. Huge primary suite with walk-in closets and large primary bath. Three secondary bedrooms on the second floor as well as two more bedrooms on the third floor! In addition to two bedrooms on the third floor and a full bath, the third floor has a great rec room - so there is yet more play space or family-hanging-out space. Totally great space in this home for multiple home offices and guest! Beautiful back yard and patio. Newer garage with excellent storage space. Although basement is unfinished, it is large and clean and nice head room for those who may wish to finish it. With the 1st floor family room and the 3rd floor rec room, this current family did not need more play/hangout space but the opportunity exists. Many many updates in this home (new windows/new hardwood floors/etc and etc). Truly this is the go-to spot to be. If you know, you know! Make it yours! You will love it!
