About the Listing 4459 - 31517,842524
Welcome home to 814 Park Ave, an award-winning home in the sought-after McKenzie neighborhood. This beautiful home was recognized with the Wilmette 2019 Historic Preservation Award for exemplary preservation and enhancement. (Interesting fact: Originally owned by Wilmette's first dry goods store owner). 814 Park sits on an outstanding lot (50x240!) and is walk-to-so-much including McKenzie Elementary school, town, train, library, and 1/2 block to Vattman Park. Let's begin with the welcoming front porch - and who doesn't love a front porch and a porch swing! The tasteful living room, with wood burning fireplace, is warm and welcoming and flows into the spacious dining room with bay windows. Dining room leads into both the kitchen and also the family room. Great flow in this house. Beautiful kitchen with expansive island seating four. Stone countertops, custom cabinetry, glass cabinet lighting are the nice touches that make this chef's kitchen lovely and perfect for cooking, gathering and entertaining. Perfectly open to the great family room where you will find a fireplace with gas starter, built-in bookcases and a beautiful view to the huge backyard! A separate office and pretty powder room complete the first floor. The primary suite was added to the home when the sellers did the renovation. It includes a vaulted ceiling, French doors overlooking the yard, generous walk-in closet and handsome primary bath with oversized marble shower, separate WC, double sink, and lovely black granite floor the sellers patterned after The Mark Hotel in NYC. All three secondary bedrooms are spacious and the secondary bath includes double sinks and a bubbler soaking tub. Before heading to the basement, take note that the walk up third floor attic is phenomenal storage space currently but a great opportunity to create more finished space. Second office perhaps? Play space? The basement includes a rec room, exercise space, 1/2 bath, large laundry room with cabinetry and counter space, storage space and one of the special features of the house: a lovely wine cellar! The two-car garage was completely renovated and includes walk up garage attic space for storage and is wired for an EV charger. Wow! And speaking of special features, the back yard is amazing! It includes a back porch, a back patio, a fire pit seating area at the back of the lot, and so so much yard space! Imagine the family gatherings on this 240ft deep lot. Lots of grass for soccer and volleyball nets, corn hole, gardening, or just quiet evenings around the fire pit. 814 Park Ave offers so much and is a beautiful blend of historic charm and contemporary conveniences for today's lifestyle. Truly a wonderful home, property and location. Make this one yours!
