Welcome to your dream home-an exceptional 1926 Red Brick English Tudor that combines historic elegance with modern luxury. This magnificent 3,700-square-foot Evanston residence features 4 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with distinctive slate shingles, elegant leaded glass windows, and striking limestone accents. Inside, you will find beautifully preserved details, including brass locks, plaster walls, and hardwood oak floors. The grand staircase with heavy wood spindles sets a tone of timeless charm. Two traditional wood-burning fireplaces warm the living and family rooms, while the exquisite formal dining room is perfect for hosting your holiday gatherings. Step into the custom chef's kitchen, where Amish cabinetry from Jasper, Indiana, complements top-of-the-line appliances, including a 48-inch Sub Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and 36-inch Wolf range. A coffee bar and wine fridge enhance the space, while a first-floor laundry room doubles as a mudroom. The spacious family room offers plenty of room for relaxation, and a secondary den is perfect for a home office or play area. The second floor features 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with attached bathroom, skylights, electric fireplace, heated floors, whirlpool tub, and steam shower. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a meticulously landscaped yard featuring a tranquil koi pond, newer cedar fence, paver pathways, and butterfly garden. The bluestone patio is ideal for alfresco dining and summer entertaining. Practical amenities include copper flashing, a sprinkler system, and one car attached garage. Storage abounds in the basement and crawl spaces. Walking distance to Central Street shops, Lincolnwood Elementary School and Haven Middle School with easy access to public transportation and major highways (90/94). This exquisite timeless Tudor home provides the ideal blend of historical elegance and contemporary comforts, truly a rare find in today's market.
