Exceptional East Winnetka residence on a rare .4-acre lot, steps from the lake, beaches, schools, town, and train. Beautifully maintained and rich in character, this historically significant home blends timeless architectural detail with the comforts and scale suited for modern living. The home offers 5Bd/4.5Ba, with all bedrooms located on the second floor-an increasingly sought-after layout for today's buyers. The main level features expansive living spaces, including a dramatic great room, drenched in sunlight, with vaulted ceilings and a curved staircase which leads to the kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with a custom built-in breakfast booth, stone counters, luxury appliances, and extra tall cabinets. The large formal dining room is connected to the kitchen and leads to a parlor w/fireplace, a stately home office, and a comfortable den (en suite powder room) for football games and movies. A tasteful mudroom connects directly to the attached two-car garage, providing a convenient everyday entry and exit. Lastly, you'll find the outdoor retreat that is your spacious backyard. Professionally landscaped and fully fenced, it offers scale not often found east of Green Bay Rd. The elegant bluestone patio offers an ideal setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, or relaxing after a day at the beach!
