Property Description
Welcome to a rare opportunity to own a stunning landmark home on one of Evanston's most coveted blocks! Set in Lakeshore Historic District in a prime walkable location, this home combines the timeless elegance of Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired design with modern updates. With leaded glass windows, solid oak floors and millwork, original Prairie-style sconces, banded ceilings, and a wood burning fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases, you're reminded that they just don't build homes like this anymore! On the main level is a welcoming foyer, spacious living room and adjoining sunroom connected by leaded glass doors. Enjoy intimate gatherings in the formal dining room complete with custom birch cabinetry. Prepare to be wowed as you enter the newly-renovated kitchen featuring an island with waterfall quartz countertops, alder cabinets, and stainless appliances. The highlight of this incredible home is the seamless expansion of the kitchen to the outdoors...through a wall of sliding glass doors you step into a stunning outdoor oasis! Sellers spared no expense, adding an expansive covered back porch with vaulted ceilings, ample space for lounging and dining, ambient lighting, and an outdoor kitchen with gas grill, griddle, pizza oven, granite countertops, and bar seating. No clunky, awkward additions here- this project was magnificently designed to look original to the home, and all approved by Evanston Historic Preservation Commission. Additional backyard features include built-in planter boxes, professional landscaping, and paver walkway to a 3-car garage with EV-charging capacity. Follow the charming details back inside and upstairs, and you'll find four bedrooms and two full updated baths. Skylights and more beautiful leaded-glass windows and doors give the upstairs a bright and airy feel. Last but not least, is a full, clean unfinished basement with ample ceiling height, leaving room for imagination and all your storage needs. For those familiar with Southeast Evanston, you know that the 700 block of Judson is a storybook location. This friendly neighborhood is known for its block parties, proximity to summer concerts and festivals, Northwestern University cultural events, and convenient urban/suburban lifestyle. Walk to the lake, multiple beaches, Main Street shops, cafes, and restaurants, Metra and CTA stations, parks and schools. Welcome home!
