Property Description

This is the location you've been looking for. Classic charm, generous space, and everyday comfort - this 5-bedroom, office, 2.5-bath Victorian cottage checks every box. The character is unmistakable from the moment you arrive, but step inside, and you'll find all the modern conveniences that make everyday living easy and enjoyable. The main floor welcomes you with a generous living room, a bright three-season front porch that doubles perfectly as a playroom, a large dining room, and an expansive updated kitchen - both ideal for hosting the gatherings you've been dreaming of. A main-floor bedroom and full bath round out the level with easy, flexible living. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms, a dedicated office, a full bath, and a second-floor porch with lovely backyard views give everyone the space they need. A large second-floor laundry room adds serious day-to-day convenience and presents a natural opportunity to add a second upstairs bath down the road. The basement delivers even more, with a family and recreation room, a woodworking space, an additional washer and dryer, a half bath, and storage that will finally put an end to the clutter. Out back, a spacious yard gives the whole family plenty of room to spread out and play. The location is just as impressive as the home itself. Situated overlooking a park, you'll have immediate access to playgrounds, tennis and pickleball courts, basketball, baseball, soccer fields, and community events right outside your door. A short 0.6-mile walk brings you to the CTA Purple Line, the Metra Davis Street station, and everything downtown Evanston has to offer - restaurants, shops, and all the amenities of one of the North Shore's most beloved communities. Charming character. Modern function. An unbeatable location. Welcome home.
