Property Description
Timeless charm meets modern convenience in this classic 1926 center-entry Colonial, nestled on a picturesque 1/3-acre lot in the highly desirable Braeside neighborhood. Boasting over 2,700 square feet above grade, this elegant home offers gracious living spaces and a prime location. Step inside to a spacious formal living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows, hardwood floors - perfect for gatherings. The formal dining room leads to an expanded and updated kitchen with granite countertops, skylight, pantry, Sub-Zero refrigerator, double oven, and a 6-burner cooktop. A separate breakfast room and family room overlook the expansive deck, lush yard, and charming gazebo, surrounded by beautiful perennial gardens. A powder room completes the main floor. Upstairs, the primary suite features a sitting room/office, 3 walk-in closets, and an en suite bath with a walk-in shower and skylight. Two additional bedrooms share a hall bath. This home maintains its original radiant heating system and boiler, with newer additions (kitchen, breakfast room, and family room) utilizing gas-forced air. Two-zone A/C ensures year-round comfort. Additional highlights include a gas line for outdoor grilling, a one-car attached garage (as-is), and a full unfinished basement for extra storage or future expansion. Enjoy the unbeatable location-walk to Metra, Braeside Elementary, the Ravinia Festival, and the Chicago Botanic Garden. Just minutes from downtown Highland Park, Ravinia's shopping district, dining, and seasonal attractions like the farmers market and Food Truck Thursdays. Quick access to the expressway makes commuting a breeze. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history in a sought-after neighborhood!
