Property Description
SOLD BEFORE PRINT!!! Beautiful landmark brick center-entry colonial, located on coveted Park Place in northwest Evanston, is available for the first time in over 40 years. Built in 1924, designed by architects Van Gunter and Van Gunter, this well-maintained home offers 3,283 square feet of living space, including 5 bedrooms, 3.1 baths, and numerous updates that have been thoughtfully carried out by the current owners. The property showcases exquisite details such as hardwood floors throughout, elegant crown and baseboard molding, and high ceilings, all adding to the home's timeless appeal. Upon entering, you're greeted by the entry hall with a grand staircase, opening to the spacious living room on one side and the formal dining room on the other. The large living room is centered around a beautiful wood-burning fireplace with an intricate wood mantel, and four windowed doors offer plenty of natural light and the option for fresh air. Adjacent to the living room is a bright and sunny family room, featuring three sides of windows and built-in bookcases making it the perfect spot for relaxation. The formal dining room is bathed in natural light, thanks to the north and east-facing windows. It flows seamlessly into the updated kitchen, which boasts newer oak hardwood floors, a center island, an eating area, Avonite countertops, and new refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave. A convenient first-floor powder room is located off the hall, leading to a 10-month sunroom. This exceptional space features a beautiful wood ceiling, windows on three sides, and views of the large, professionally landscaped backyard with irrigation system and the two-car garage. The second floor is home to the master suite, which includes a spacious bedroom with a vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet and an ensuite bath. The master bath features a spa tub, a separate shower, dual sinks, and a lovely leaded window. Additionally, there are three more bedrooms, one of which is currently used as an office plus an additional office looking out on Park Place and a full hall bath. The renovated third floor offers a flexible, carpeted space, overlaying a fiber-board base, with a den on one side, currently used as a playroom, and a fifth bedroom on the other, complete with hardwood floors and an ensuite bath. The basement features a large recreation room with black-and-white vinyl floor tiles, built-in shelves, and a decorative fireplace, perfect for entertaining. The utility room includes a boiler, 200-amp electric panel, and a 75-gallon hot water tank, and the ceiling has recently been redone. The laundry room includes an LG dryer, a Whirlpool washer, a sink, and a sump pump with battery backup. The walls and floor of the crawl space under the sunroom have been sprayed with insulation. Roof was replaced approximately 12 years ago. This home's location is truly unbeatable. Just two blocks north of Central Street, it offers easy access to shopping, dining, parks, schools, and transportation. It's also just a short commute to downtown Evanston and Old Orchard Shopping Center. With its blend of character, updates, and ideal location, this home is a great find.
