Incredible neighborhood of historic homes, all of different style. Extensive long southern exposure of house (back room, dining room, living room and parlor) separated by 25 feet from house to the south providing beautiful natural sunlight. Great 15'x15" sunroom on back of house with large picture windows on all four sides, one of them looking over deck---room was originally built as Japanese tea room by original owners in approximately 1920. Built-in original oak cabinet in dining room. Everything in excellent condition and air conditioning throughout, with new gas forced-air furnace (heats first floor and parts of second floor) and new boiler (heats remainder of second and whole third floors). Working pocket doors between foyer and living room and between dining room and living room, though usually kept open. Working fireplaces in living room, dining room and master bedroom (originally wood-burning, converted to gas). Truly an architectural gem in a gorgeous neighborhood and a great community (Evanston).
