Delivering chic, youthful living with a very high-end, hotel vibe, all wrapped up on a fab block with a rare heated driveway & attached two-car garage-ready for winter weather! This superior smart-tech build has been outfitted to perfection with floor-to-ceiling black iron windows, natural oak sawn, hand-beveled wide plank floors, custom high-end cabinetry, and radiant heat throughout the lower level and garage. There is even a posh dog wash off the mudroom! Atrium foyer leads to a fab circular entertaining floor plan, with the center hub being the gorgeous, zen-like Chef's kitchen, all in natural hues with thick Taj Mahal quartz c-tops, two-toned painted island with oak sawn paneling, matching oversized sink with brass faucet. Ann Sacks glazed cream subway tile blends beautifully with off-white cabs. This fab kitchen is adjacent to a sleek butler's pantry with Thermador coffee station, plus a walk-in pantry with double ovens and microwave. All professional-level Thermador appliances: 6-burner cook-top with griddle, two dishwashers, full-size separate fridge & freezer. Cozy family room with a WB fireplace is the perfect place to watch TV while preparing dinner, inside or out on the decked-out outdoor space with FP and grilling station, all on a gorgeous patio. Seamless flow to the deluxe LL with an incredible rec center equipped with a loaded wet bar, powder room, and inviting guest suite. En-suite spa luxe bath and customized walk-in closet complement this plush LL space with natural light. Sun-drenched 2nd floor with vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows illuminate this beautifully detailed level with a full laundry room. Two beds share a spa bath in soothing tones with dual vanity and tub, accented in porcelain tile. Posh, boutique-level primary suite with horizontal fireplace, customized walk-in closet, separate office area with private balcony, and the most luxurious bathroom with deep soaking tub, heated floors, and steam shower, polished in gorgeous tiles & materials. While this custom home is not huge, the finish level is turnkey perfection, as this notable North Shore builder brings a magnificent transitional vibe, so no decorator is needed. This is the perfect in-town residence that makes leaving the city super easy, as everything is a 3-minute walk... grab your Starbucks on the way to the train, meet for drinks at the best bar in Winnetka, Pomeroy, and run to The Grand for any last-minute forgotten ingredients when entertaining. It's time for fun at 589 Birch! TAXES are being reduced. There was an error in square footage when house was assessed as new construction-coming down!
