Evanston, Illinois 60202

A unique opportunity in a wonderful Evanston location! Currently configured as a beautifully maintained two-flat, this property offers tremendous flexibility and could easily be converted into a spacious single-family home. Thoughtfully updated and meticulously maintained throughout, major improvements include solar panels installed in 2024, a new roof and LeafGuard gutter system in November 2020, replacement windows throughout, and an all-new 2+car garage completed in 2018. The handsome cedar shake exterior has been beautifully maintained. The large fully fenced 175 ft. deep yard is exceptional, with multi-level decks, a patio, raised garden beds and even a small orchard-creating wonderful spaces for outdoor entertaining, gardening and relaxing. Both units feature hardwood floors, wood-burning fireplaces, two generously sized bedrooms, updated bathrooms, updated kitchens and separate dining rooms. Custom radiator covers add character to many of the rooms. The first-floor unit offers two generously sized bedrooms, an updated bathroom with 2year old Jacuzzi walk-in shower, hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace and a separate dining room. Adjoining the primary bedroom is a wonderful sunroom that can serve as an office, study or quiet sitting room, with direct access to the deck and gardens. The well-equipped kitchen features a Wolf range, Sub-Zero full-size refrigerator and a small additional freezer in the pantry. A large freezer is located in the basement. The spacious second-floor residence lives much like a single-family home. In addition to two bedrooms, it features a formal dining room, wood-burning fireplace and a lovely sunroom adjoining the primary bedroom. Overlooking the yard, the sunroom makes an ideal home office, reading room or quiet retreat. The beautifully updated bathroom features a glass walk-in shower with rain showerhead and floor-to-ceiling tile. The kitchen includes a Bosch stainless steel dishwasher, newer appliances and ample workspace. A private balcony provides additional outdoor living space. The basement adds even more flexibility with two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom and family room area, along with shared laundry featuring a new washer and newer dryer. Perhaps one of the property's greatest opportunities is the huge attic with high ceilings. This substantial unfinished space could potentially be incorporated into the existing living area, offering exciting possibilities for a future single-family conversion. All of this is just a short walk to Main Street's restaurants, shops and neighborhood amenities, as well as both the CTA and Metra stations. A special property offering character, extensive improvements, wonderful outdoor space and exceptional possibilities for the future.
