High end finishes on four levels of spectacular living are offered in this 5 (+1) bedroom/5.1 bath home on a 185' deep, corner lot in sought after East Wilmette. From the gracious entryway, you are welcomed into a large foyer and immediately greeted with soaring ceiling height and custom millwork.

The spacious sun-filled family room with fireplace and four exterior doors allows for the outside to easily come in and leads out to a well-proportioned patio and fenced-in backyard. The elegant formal dining room features picture frame molding and stylish wallpaper. The charming living room (or music room), gorgeous library and powder room complete the first floor. The primary suite is a true sanctuary with a spa-like bath, superior walk-in-closet, magnificent built-ins, gas fireplace and soaring ceiling height. Three additional bedrooms (one en-suite), hall bath and fabulous laundry room round out this level. The third floor offers a 5th bedroom and full bath. The lower level showcases additional entertaining space with high ceilings, custom dry bar, recreation room with exceptional built-ins, media/exercise room, 6th bedroom, full bath and enormous storage room. The professionally landscaped lot provides plenty of play and entertaining space plus a detached two-car garage.
