Property Description
Completely updated and renovated, this charming home is situated on a corner lot, allowing for abundant natural light, and is nestled on one of Kenilworth's most delightful streets. You enter the home from the fantastic front porch into the gracious entryway with an open living and dining room. The back of the home has been completely gutted, with walls taken down providing the most perfect kitchen/family room with breakfast nook and spacious island. This is the heart of the home and no expense was spared when Normandy Builders reimagined the space and updated it with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops and top end appliances such as Viking, Bosch and Wolf. The second floor features a fabulous primary suite with excellent closet space and a brand new bathroom with double sinks, walk-in shower and radiant floor heat. There are three additional bedrooms and a hallway bath on this floor. The basement features a cozy recreation room, laundry room and storage closets surrounding the perimeter. When it comes to the exterior of the home, no detail was left untouched and the garage has received a full face lift in addition to the fully fenced yard being professionally designed and landscaped by Chalet. With this special home, there is nothing left to do but move in! Close to Metra, award winning Sears School (JK-8), New Trier High School, Pee-Wee Park and the Beach.
