Description

Nestled in heart of tree-lined Center Ave, this thoughtful East Lake Bluff home offers the perfect blend of timeless charm and modern comforts. Perfectly located between town and the lake, this home is a welcoming sanctuary with versatile spaces and elegant details. The roomy front porch greets you as you approach the home and is an ideal place to enjoy a relaxing afternoon, rain or shine. As you enter the home into the sunlit foyer, you immediately see the original features of the home: wide hallways, high ceilings, formal living room with ornamental original fireplace, & gorgeous dining room. But just around the corner an incredible surprise is waiting! The newer renovated kitchen is perfectly laid out with views open to the amazing family room with fireplace, vaulted ceilings, multiple skylights, & incredible walls of windows overlooking the decks & backyard. The main level offers space for ample storage, with home office & powder room, and additional storage space in the basement. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms and two full baths, including a serene primary suite with double vanities, separate tub & shower, a generous walk-in closet, seating area, & beautiful views of the backyard. Three additional bedrooms with ample closet space, large shared bath, & 2nd floor laundry complete the bedroom level. A very unique surprise feature of the home is the additional 3rd floor, bathed in natural light, serving as a peaceful retreat for home office, studio, home gym, or recreation room. With easy access to the beach, town, and train, this home is not just a place to live-it's a space designed for comfort, creativity, and community. Welcome Home!
