About this home
Historic Wilmette Gem - 3 Bed, 2 Bath, Spacious Backyard Looking for a place to create your forever home? This charming historic Wilmette single-family home blends classic character with modern updates and room to grow. Built in the mid-19th century by Old World craftsmen, it's solid, sturdy, and ready for its next owners. The charming red Dutch door at the entrance and the sturdy painted-brick exterior give it timeless curb appeal. This is not your common plaster-and-PVC cookie-cutter modern construction - it is built to last and will likely outlive all of us. Inside, you'll find 3 bedrooms and 2 updated bathrooms. The light-filled 4-season front porch has room for relaxing and entertaining. One bedroom features built-in bunk beds - a full on top and a single on the bottom. Upstairs, the original wide-plank fir floors showcase the home's historic character; downstairs, oak covers the original fir. The spacious kitchen has room for a mobile work island or a breakfast table. Both bathrooms are large and recently updated. The unfinished basement provides plenty of space for laundry and storage, while both the house and garage attics have been floored with plywood for even more storage options. The garage also includes a built-in long workbench and dedicated tool storage, making it ideal for projects and organization. Included appliances are stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. The home also has central AC for year-round comfort. The house sits near the front of the lot, leaving an expansive fenced backyard - lots of room for gardening, pets, playsets, expansion, or even building something completely new. The yard also includes a firepit, a big potting bench, and a compost area, making it great for outdoor living and gardening projects. Parking is easy with a 2-car garage, driveway space for 2 more vehicles, and street parking (anytime but 3-5am). The home is in Wilmette Public Schools District 39, with Romona Elementary, Highcrest Middle School, and Wilmette Junior High, all within walking distance. High school students attend top-ranked New Trier High School. The neighborhood is quiet, family-friendly, and very walkable. You'll be within easy reach of several parks, the Wilmette Community Recreation Center (fitness center, daycare, summer camps, and classes for all ages), and the pool, ice rink, and tennis center just down the street.
