About This Property
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.
