House Description

This New England coastal-style Cape Cod is set on the tree-lined boulevard of Center Avenue blocks from Lake Michigan, downtown Lake Bluff, and the area's best parks and schools. A recently renovated exterior sets a classic tone with a new roof, fresh siding, and landscaping that reflect the same care carried through the interiors. Inside, the main floor establishes a natural flow from the entry to the formal living room, dining room, and eat-in kitchen, which is appointed with a farmhouse sink, Wolf cooktop and oven, a Bosch dishwasher, cherrywood cabinetry, granite counters, built-ins, and breakfast-bar seating. The spacious family room, anchored by a fireplace, opens to a paver patio and a privately fenced backyard with peaceful gardens. Hardwood floors, wainscotting, interesting millwork, and architectural details further lend the home character. A first-floor bedroom with easy access to a renovated full bath presents a flexible option for a guest room, a home office, or multigenerational living. Residing upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath. The primary bedroom is generously sized, featuring two walk-in closets and custom built-ins, with space enough to build out an ensuite for the next owner. Completing the property is a partially finished basement with laundry and ample storage, a 1-car attached garage, newer windows, custom built-ins, a new washer and dryer, and many other updates that enhance its day-to-day livability. Owned and thoughtfully improved by the same family since 2013, this home reflects years of careful stewardship and pride of ownership. With convenient access to downtown Lake Bluff, the train, schools, parks, and beach, it is a rare find.
