About This Property

Set on a quiet, tree-lined block just moments from downtown Evanston, the Farmer's Market, Metra, Lake Michigan, and beloved neighborhood shops and restaurants, this inviting Evanston Landmark Victorian beautifully blends timeless character with modern comfort. Extensively renovated between 2008 and 2019, this solar powered home showcases original millwork, stained glass, and historic charm while offering the space and amenities today's buyers are looking for. Inside, a welcoming foyer opens to gracious living spaces including a charming sitting room, a relaxed family room with an oversized front window, a formal dining room with bay window, a first-floor full bath, and a practical mudroom. Designed for easy everyday living and exceptional entertaining, the rear of the home features a spacious kitchen and breakfast room, complete with a butler's pantry, walk-in pantry, and seamless access to the wraparound rear deck with multiple areas for dining, lounging, and gathering outdoors. Upstairs, the dramatic vaulted primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a recently added spa-like bath with dual sinks, a water closet, walk-in shower, and soaking tub. Three additional generously sized bedrooms, a laundry room, and a beautifully renovated hall bath with heated floors complete the second level. The finished lower level adds even more flexibility with a casual recreation room, office area, workout space, storage, and a half bath. Beyond the main home, a nicely renovated and rentable two-bedroom coach house offers outstanding versatility, with laundry hookup and its own cozy patio-ideal for guests, extended family, or income potential. A rare three-car heated garage includes an electric car charger, workshop, and extra room for bikes, strollers, and outdoor gear. Both the home and the coach house have their own solar panels (owned) which provide energy to power both structures much of the year. Outside, the backyard feels like a private oasis, with a wraparound deck, fire pit area, and lush perennial gardens creating the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining year-round. As part of the welcoming Smith Park community and a short walk to the popular Penny Park, there are plenty of options to enjoy within walking distance.
