**HIGHEST AND BEST DUE MONDAY 5/18 @ 5P** Rare opportunity: spacious brick ranch with versatile layout on nearly a 1/2 acre. Tucked away in a private, garden-like setting yet just minutes from shopping, dining, major highways, and train access, this 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath California-style ranch offers the perfect blend of privacy and convenience. The home features luxury laminate flooring throughout, an updated light-filled kitchen and dining area overlooking the yard, and a comfortable breakfast bar. The thoughtful split-bedroom layout includes three generous bedrooms and a full bath in the west wing, plus an expansive and versatile fourth bedroom off the kitchen-ideal for a guest suite, studio, workshop, office, or additional living space. Interior rooms frame beautiful views of the landscaped backyard, where mature plantings and flower gardens create a private outdoor retreat. Enjoy quiet days in the garden-like yard and cozy evenings by the wood-burning fireplace. All of this includes an extra wide driveway leading to your oversized 2.5 car garage. Located within walking distance of Countryside Park and in the highly regarded Northbrook North school district, this home is truly one of a kind.
