Property Description
If you're looking for the perfect balance of suburban tranquility and proximity to the action, then 883 Elm Street in Winnetka is your dream address! Nestled just steps from downtown Winnetka's shops, restaurants, parks, and Metra station, this classic 3-bedroom, 2.1-bathroom home exudes charm and is situated on a rare, oversized 55x187 lot. From the moment you arrive, the curb appeal is undeniable. Fresh new landscaping, new exterior paint, and a welcoming screened-in front porch set the tone for relaxed living and entertaining. Step inside to find 9 ft ceilings in the spacious living room featuring a gas starter wood-burning fireplace, custom built-ins, which leads to the front porch. With gleaming hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and a gracious foyer, the home's classic charm blends seamlessly with modern comforts. Vintage details from 1899 on the banister are so dreamy! The updated kitchen is a chef's delight, complete with white painted cabinets, a Thermador 4-burner stove, Subzero fridge, and an elegant black farmhouse sink. Off the kitchen, you'll find a first-floor laundry room, eat-in kitchen, play space, plus a spacious dining room. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a newly renovated white bathroom with double sinks and walk in closets. Plus, there is a private office or a room that could serve as an extra bedroom/nursery off the suite. There are two additional bedrooms on the 2nd level that share a family bathroom. The outdoor space features a large deck, a brand-new two-car garage, and a side patio perfect for a cozy fire pit. The unfinished basement provides ample storage. This home has been thoughtfully updated with newer Pella windows, with many updates in 2022 like: a new Furnace/AC system, new copper plumbing, no lead pipe to the street, new sewer lines, a sump pump with battery backup, and new attic insulation with an attic fan. The exterior boasts a newly paved driveway, fresh landscaping, and a sprinkler system. 883 Elm Street is completely move-in ready and offers exciting expansion opportunities, given the oversized lot. It provides the perfect blend of charm, modern updates, and unbeatable location. Don't miss your chance to call this beautiful home your own and enjoy everything Winnetka has to offer!
