About this home
In sought-after Northwest Evanston, 2448 Lincolnwood Drive is an award-winning Tudor which has been masterfully updated and doubled in size. It offers the kind of flexible space today's buyers are looking for, while maintaining its unique characteristics. From the moment you enter, there's an easy, welcoming flow. The main level has been designed for comfort and convenience but which also exudes a quiet elegance. The house can accommodate busy family mornings, as well as provide the ability to work from home or host a full house. Multiple living spaces abound, anchored by several fireplaces, creating different areas to gather. A sunny first floor office, adjacent to the spacious living room, offers a private retreat. The kitchen and keeping room are truly the heart of this home, complete with a tiled, wood-burning fireplace. Centered around a massive walnut island, this work space is where everything comes together. A curated, chef-level appliance suite, including Wolf double ovens and cooktop, Sub-Zero refrigeration, Miele dishwashers, and integrated wine, beverage and ice storage, elevate the space while keeping it functional. The brick-floored butler's pantry provides abundant storage, as well as a charming passage to the beautifully proportioned, beamed-ceiling dining room. There is a step-down, paneled family room with two entrances, one from the living room, the other from the keeping room. Floor-to-ceiling windows surround French doors which open onto an enclosed, private garden area, ideal for lounging, playing and entertaining. The professionally designed garden and lawn areas have an irrigation system. For larger gatherings, the heated two-car garage transforms into an open-air pavilion, which can be accessed from three sides, perfect for any-season entertaining. At the top of the front hall staircase there is a charming sitting room area, complete with fireplace and storage cabinets. It accesses a large screened porch, where you can lounge with a good book or entertain friends, surrounded by trees and full views of the lovely gardens below. The primary suite is a show-stopper, complete with fireplace, beamed and vaulted ceiling, and a well-designed dressing room with custom cabinetry. The huge luxury master bath has two separate sinks, heated towel racks, two water-closets, a double walk-in shower, as well as a grand soaking tub and heated limestone flooring. A second bedroom has a large walk-in closet, with built in drawers, and a private, tiled ensuite bathroom also with heated towel racks. A third bedroom completes the second floor with a separate hall bath/shower. A beautiful staircase continues to the third level, well lit by a skylight and abundant windows. There is a large bedroom, a full bath and spacious sitting room, as well as a cedar closet. This area is perfect for guests or additional office or play space for the family. The basement area is large, with many custom cabinets for storage, two washers and dryers, huge folding table and even a workroom area for projects or storage. This is a warm and refined home that welcomes all who enter. It has the space and flexibility for new owners to make it their own. Enjoy the neighborhood parks, access to the Metra, and the lively businesses and restaurants that provide service on nearby Central Street. Spectacular!...
