Maison Unifamiliale Wilmette États Unis

Homes like this do not come along often. Welcome to one of Kenilworth Gardens most iconic residences. Originally built in 1928 as the very first home (”Lot 1”) for the original developer of the neighborhood, this extraordinary French Provincial estate is unlike any other. Set on a rare 75-foot-wide lot and perched gracefully above the street, this architectural gem combines timeless elegance with exceptional renovations in one of Wilmette’s most coveted neighborhoods. Offering 4 bedrooms, a separate home office, and 4.5 bathrooms, the home is rich in character with beautiful brick and stucco construction, gracious formal rooms, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and exquisite craftsmanship throughout. At the heart of the home is a spectacular 2022 designer kitchen featuring Sub-Zero, Wolf and Cove appliances, highlighted by a breathtaking Le Cornue range, opening beautifully to everyday living in the family room featuring welcoming fireplace and the oversized yard and stunning terrace perfect for entertaining. The luxurious primary suite is a true retreat with vaulted ceilings and skylights, an extraordinary custom walk-in closet, and a newly renovated spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and oversized shower. The finished lower level offers additional living space, including a recreation room, private office and a full bath featuring a steam shower and multi-person Jacuzzi. Outdoor living is equally exceptional. Mature trees surround the property, creating remarkable privacy, while the professionally designed multi-level L-shaped stone terrace features a built-in gas fire feature and two built-in grills, making it the perfect setting for entertaining. The home also offers automatic landscape lighting, a fully renovated 2 car garage with new slab, attic storage and Tesla charging station, brand-new stucco exterior, brand-new driveway, and a spacious walk-up attic with soaring ceilings ready for future expansion. Recent improvements include a 2022 luxury kitchen renovation, newly remodelled primary bath, water heater (2020), Ducane basement furnace (2013), new HVAC coils (2026), along with extensive exterior improvements that make this home truly move-in ready. Ideally located just a 9-minute walk to the Kenilworth Metra, approximately nine blocks to Lake Michigan and Kenilworth Beach, and within walking distance of Harper Elementary, Thornwood Park, downtown Kenilworth, shops and restaurants, this is a rare opportunity to own one of the North Shore’s most beautifully updated homes. A timeless French Provincial masterpiece where historic charm, exceptional craftsmanship, and modern luxury come together in perfect harmony.
