A stylized welcoming foyer with gorgeous tile welcomes you with sight lines through the home. Spacious living room and dining room feature wonderful natural light, large windows and hardwood floors. The updated kitchen with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances opens seamlessly to the heart of the home: a spectacular family room addition with soaring ceilings, oversized arched windows and French doors, and views of the beautifully landscaped backyard.

The private yard creates a true retreat in the heart of the neighborhood. The open green space across the way allows for panoramic views from anywhere in the house and can be used for overflow play space all year round! An exceptional opportunity in one of Evanston's most desirable locations, surrounded by green space and just moments from the lakefront, trains, parks, schools, restaurants, and shops.
