HARRY WEESE....The renowned Chicago architect who has shaped so many large structures and buildings in the city and beyond! This beauty was built in 1954 for his sister and her family. Today it is listed in the National Register of Historic places and it is an official Wilmette landmark. The house sits beautifully on a large lot in Indian Hills Estate. Beautifully maintained with all the original materials and selections intact! Amazing light, with the indoor and outdoor seamlessly going hand in hand through out the house. Versatile rooms and floor-plan, the staircase being a true focal point. This is very special! Just featured in Crains Chicago! Take a look and see the beauty that Harry Weese created!

R
Single-Family Detached Residence District
The R District is established to protect, promote, and maintain the development of single-family detached housing and limited public and institutional uses that are compatible with the surrounding residential neighborhood. The development standards and range of allowable uses for this district are designed to maintain a suitable environment for family living at the low density of development characteristic of the current pattern of development in the district, which consists of large lots with abundant open space. The R District includes one sub-district which allows the same uses but provides bulk provisions that reflect the specific attributes of the development pattern that results in lot width and lot area that are less than that of the R District but still larger than that typically found in any R1 sub-district.
