Property Description

Yes, 'Big Blue' is on the market! Fabulous home on lovely Wilmette brick street in the heart of McKenzie Schools! 1706 Elmwood sits beautifully on the wide lot with the rare attached garage! The front porch was added in 2021 and has industrial grade heaters, making this a nearly year round living space! Inside is wonderful open space with beautiful arches, lead glass details and gleaming hardwood floors. The bright living room with sliding doors to the porch, and a wall of windows, opens to the lovely, large dining room. Adjacent to the dining and living areas are two versatile rooms, perfect for use as an office, den, or personal Peloton space. The eat-in kitchen is a huge gathering space, with stainless steel appliances, abundant counter space, walk-in pantry and seated bar. Just as perfect for entertaining as it is for day to day family cooking & ease of living. The kitchen extends to a great sitting area providing space for everyone, and leads to a large deck with eastern exposure and a great space for the grill! The family room, off the kitchen area is simply spectacular! With beamed ceiling, skylights, a wall of windows and glass doors leading to the large and private yard, this room is bright year round. Anchored by a beautiful fireplace and custom built-ins, this Great Room mirrors the light, fresh atmosphere found throughout the home. Upstairs, the generous primary suite offers a luxurious walk-in closet and an exquisite primary bath with a double vanity, separate shower, soaking tub, and heated floors. Two additional large bedrooms, hall bath and laundry complete this floor. The third floor houses two more bedrooms, a full bath, and a cozy sitting area - perfect for a guest suite, au pair suite, or teen retreat. The attached garage was rebuilt in 2021, is wired for EV's and has double doors for ease of moving furniture. Stairs from the garage lead to the second floor which is drywalled and could be an excellent playroom or hangout space. This home truly is the best of both worlds - open floor plan with beautiful architectural interest. The back yard is huge, professionally landscaped with a lovely patio and privacy. Exceptionally well maintained with new roof and new Hardie Board siding. Move right in and be close to the town, train, schools and parks!
