So much to love about this 3 Bedrooms, 3.5 Bath Renovated Ranch Home in Wilmette! Thoughtfully updated to provide an Entertainers Dream Kitchen with massive island seating for 4 and a large Bar/Buffet space perfect for gatherings. One set of sliding doors off the kitchen leads to a Private Patio Space perfect for the morning coffee or grilling at night. The kitchen opens to the Combo Living/Dining space with vaulted ceilings and features a Gas-Burning Fireplace with floor to ceiling brick and a stone hearth. The showstopper, though, is the Double Wide Sliding Glass Doors that open to a large patio and a lushous lawn with stunning perennial garden. Well-appointed Master Suite with room for King Bed, Brand New Master Bath with double sinks, walk-in shower and heated floors. Don't miss the large walk-in closet plus another set of sliding doors lead to the yard. Two other bedrooms on the main level including another en suite and a full hall bathroom. Downstairs, you'll find the bar/rec room and a bonus room for office/workout space plus a nice laundry room, plenty of storage and a 1/2 bath! The location is a short walk to elementary, middle and junior high schools and the Community Play Fields with tennis courts, walking paths and baseball field. 2-Car Attached Garage. The house is set back nicely from the road and is very private. The lot is beautiful!
