Property Description
This unassuming corner building sits proudly in the heart of the Evanston Arts District, also known as the West Village. The original early 1900's corner market (Frederick's or Fred's Finer Foods) was transformed into a stunning single-family home by its award-winning architect owners in 2014. The first floor space, with 10' ceilings, allows for a living/dining/kitchen/and table nook, as well as a coveted main floor bedroom and full bath. This bedroom opens to the living space with a sliding barn-style door for maximum flexibility of use. A small addition to the back creates a garden/sitting room and adjacent mud room, with French doors to engage the backyard. The second floor has 8'9" ceilings and restored pine floors. It was developed into a primary bedroom and private bath with a walk-in closet, a second bedroom and full hall bathroom, and a laundry room. In addition you'll find an open study area at the top of the stairs with a built-in desk, and a fabulous north facing office/studio at the back of the house with beautiful, even light overlooking the yard. The opening from the living room to the second floor visually connects the two levels and allows light from the south facing facade to penetrate deep into the living space. A venting skylight adds more light and creates natural ventilation. The basement offers great space for storage and workshop (6'3'' height) and the 2-car brick garage offers additional workshop space as well. Central air, 200 amp electric, new plumbing and electrical, a sump pump, and an extensive list of quality upgrades and finishes will be available. The private fenced yard and lush garden, brick paths, ground-level deck, grill, and beautiful plantings all add to the serene, peaceful setting. This was a labor of love and with retired owners moving out of state, this is a rare and special opportunity for a new owner to enjoy this thriving community and neighborhood. Live within blocks of transportation, restaurants, groceries, Washington elementary, and the Robert Crown community center, library and play fields. Only a short distance to downtown Evanston, Northwestern and the Lake front.
