Property Description

Welcome to 1100 Forest Avenue - a beautifully updated and thoughtfully designed home in the heart of East Wilmette. Set on a beautiful, tree-lined street just blocks from the lake, this timeless home blends classic architecture with fresh, modern style. A charming front porch sets the tone, leading into a gracious center-entry layout with fantastic flow and natural light throughout. Inside, the formal living room features a gorgeous fireplace, rich millwork, and tall windows that frame the mature landscaping outside. Across the hall, the dining room connects seamlessly to a bright, white kitchen complete with dolomite countertops, a large center island, custom cabinetry, and top-of-the-line appliances. The adjoining breakfast room and family room overlook the backyard and are perfect for everyday living and entertaining. You'll also find a spacious first-floor office or den tucked away in the front corner of the home. Upstairs, the airy primary suite includes a bay window sitting area, two walk-in closets, and a stunning en-suite bathroom with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a skylit walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a second-floor laundry room complete this level. A third-floor rooftop deck is perfect for incredible views and relaxing summer evenings. The fully finished basement offers two additional bedrooms, a full bath, a dedicated exercise room, and a large recreation room with space for movies, games, or indoor hoops. Outside, you'll enjoy a beautifully landscaped yard with a built-in grill, outdoor TV, seating area, and an incredible sport court. With over 5,100 square feet of finished living space, this home has room to grow and gather - all in an unbeatable location.
