Description

Nestled on a charming, tree-lined cobblestone street in Wilmette's coveted McKenzie School neighborhood, 219 Catalpa Avenue is a rare offering - a home where high-end designer renovations meet timeless architectural character. A welcoming mudroom sets the tone upon entry, balancing style with everyday practicality. The main level unfolds into a thoughtfully reimagined floor plan built for both effortless entertaining and relaxed daily living. At its heart, a stunning renovated kitchen showcases a sophisticated mix of marble and walnut countertops, while a separate custom butler's pantry and coffee station - complete with extra cabinetry, a beverage center, and dual wine fridges elevates the space further. A versatile first-floor den with its own en suite bath rounds out the level, serving equally well as a private fourth bedroom or home office. Upstairs features three generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, centered around a serene primary suite. This private retreat boasts a cozy fireplace in the bedroom area, alongside an unmistakably luxurious en suite bathroom complete with a soaking tub, elegant marble countertops, and premium Waterworks fixtures. The basement extends the living space beautifully, offering a spacious recreation room, a charming reading nook, a full-size laundry room, and exceptional storage. Outside, a beautifully landscaped backyard and a gorgeous brick patio create a private outdoor oasis perfect for al fresco dining, all complemented by an oversized detached two-car garage. Truly walkable to everything, this turn-key North Shore gem places a vibrant park right at your doorstep - with Wheeler Park, grocery stores, the Metra, the public library, and downtown Wilmette's excellent dining and shopping all just minutes away.
