This is not the home you have been waiting for... It is BETTER than the home you have been waiting for! With 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms you have options for your at-home office and guest bedroom. Along with the fact that in recent years the kitchen, bathrooms, building components and mechanical systems have all been updated - this home has additional unique features that make it stand out from the rest. The flow of the home was greatly improved by removing the dining room wall, giving both dining area and kitchen extra space and a wide open feel. The closet in the primary bedroom was enlarged and professionally customized. You will not find a closet this big or with as much storage or special features in other similar homes! Summers will be so fun in your fully fenced yard enjoying your built-in grill and Green Egg along with your gas firepit for cozy Spring and Fall evenings. A great feature of your outdoor kitchen is that is does not disturb the big yard for running and playing! Like to bathe your dog or fill the kiddie pool? There is a hot water spigot in the backyard! Back inside, the high end gourmet cook's kitchen opens to the family room with counter seating (facing the TV of course) attached to beautiful built-in cabinetry with storage on both sides. A brand new dishwasher, rebuilt Wolf electric oven, Sub-Zero refrigerator, huge farm sink, tons of cabinetry and more built-in seating make cooking and entertaining a breeze. The finished basement has a fun service bar with a small refrigerator and a free standing freezer in the storage room. The whole house was just completely freshly painted and new glass block windows were installed in the basement. You get beautiful hardwood floors throughout, newer interior doors, windows, siding and roof. The furnace, A coil and sump pump are new in 2024. The primary bedroom has a Mitsubishi "split system" AC unit and electricity is already pulled through for a car charger in the garage. Both chimneys were tuckpointed in 2023, new concrete driveway in 2023 and new landscaping in the front and back in 2024 (with beautiful Hydrangeas!). All this and you get the award winning schools of Northbrook's School District 27 (Hickory Point, Shabonee and Wood Oaks Junior High) and District 225 Glenbrook North High School. This is a wonderful home in a wonderful location!
