About This Property
Beautiful, Tudor-Style home on a DOUBLE LOT in the heart of
Evanston! The home has 4-beds/2.5-baths with an office/den space on
the main floor that could easily become a 5th bedroom if needed,
AND two garages accommodating up to 4 cars! Sellers have maintained
the property meticulously over the 13 years they've owned and loved
the home. The craftsmanship of the home is impeccable with tons of
attention to detail - the custom crown molding and other millwork,
original hardwood floors and stairs, and the original and pristine
tilework in the upstairs bath, are just some of the features. The
sellers have made plenty of updates to add modern conveniences to
the home, including renovating the kitchen with custom cabinetry,
high-end Viking appliances and brand new quartz countertops. They
had the basement waterproofed with a drain tile/sump pump system,
added a 2nd full bath, and sanded/stained/sealed the concrete
floors. They updated all the electrical in the home (including a
new panel); added a new solar hot water system (the home's hot
water is FREE!!); updated the woodburning fireplace by having the
firebox tuckpointed & painted, the smoke chamber parged, a
stainless lock-top damper installed, and had custom decorative tile
added to the fireplace's facade. They replaced the back deck and
both overhead garage doors, and added custom shelving and wall
storage in both garages. AND they had the entire exterior of the
home and garage repaired (as needed) and painted! The exterior
features of this property are just as incredible as the
interior...first of all, the backyard's playset and basketball hoop
will transfer with the property. Now, let's talk about the amazing
garden the sellers have cultivated on the extra lot to the East
side of the home. Over the last 13 years, they have transformed
this lot into a living sanctuary of organic fruit trees, nut
bushes, native wildflowers and grasses, a raised bed vegetable
garden, and more. By designing a "Permaculture Food Forest," they
have intermixed diverse plants in ways that imitate a forest
ecosystem, require no harmful chemicals or fertilizers, and
contribute to a healthy habitat for birds, butterflies, and
pollinators. A Certified Wildlife Habitat, this urban oasis is
beautiful, easy to care for, and bursting with fresh, healthy food!
The lot features a Juneberry Tree, an Asian Pear Tree, a Plum Tree,
a Honeycrisp Apple Tree, a Cherry Tree, Chicago Fig Trees, Paw Paw
Trees, 18 Hazelnut Bushes, 16 Black Chokeberry/Raspberry/Black
Currant/Blackberry and Gooseberry Bushes, plus native grasses,
flowers, and plants, and a "Root and Roost" Chicken Coop and Run
with 6 chickens! Please see "additional info" for a map of the yard
& gardens. For buyers interested in maintaining the yard, the
sellers would be happy to share more about the many different
elements - or if you're not interested in maintaining it and would
prefer a clear side lot, the sellers will do their best to re-home
as much as they can. This is a RARE OPPORTUNITY in Evanston...don't
miss the chance to call this incredible property your own!
