Completely updated and impeccably cared for, this beautiful 5-bedroom, 3.1-bath home offers an exceptional opportunity in highly desirable east Northbrook and award-winning District 28. Renovated by Schwall Builders in 2017, the home showcases the finishes today’s buyers want, along with southern exposure, new hardwood floors on the main level, and a warm, functional layout designed for everyday living and entertaining. The inviting living room features floor-to-ceiling windows and crown molding and flows seamlessly into the family room, where a wood-burning fireplace with gas log setup and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone surround creates a striking focal point. A Pella sliding door leads to the private, fenced backyard with a large brick paver patio, stone seating wall, and beautifully established perennial gardens that provide color from spring through fall. The eat-in kitchen is both stylish and highly functional, offering stainless steel appliances including a Bosch dishwasher, LG 4-door smart refrigerator, and a 5-burner gas cooktop with griddle option. Leather-finished granite counters, a single-basin sink with instant hot water dispenser, LED lighting, a remote-controlled window treatment, and a large picture window overlooking the backyard complete the space. The dining room, accented with chair rail and a chandelier, is perfectly suited for hosting family and friends. A well-designed mudroom keeps daily life organized with cubbies, wall hooks, a bench, LG washer and dryer, granite counter, pantry closet, and convenient access to the 2-car garage and backyard. Upstairs, the primary suite features a new walk-in closet and a beautifully appointed ensuite bath with double-bowl vanity, granite counters, a walk-in shower with dual shower heads, and a linen closet. Three additional spacious bedrooms, a sun-filled hall bath, and a second linen closet complete the second floor. The lower level expands the living space with a recreation room, fifth bedroom, full bath, private office with double doors, and abundant storage. Additional highlights include in-ground sprinklers, a Lennox furnace, AprilAire whole-house humidifier, radon mitigation system, and new basement windows. Ideally located within walking distance of downtown Northbrook, shopping, parks, swimming, and transportation, this home offers an outstanding lifestyle in one of Northbrook’s most sought-after locations.
