Home Details for 211 Church Road

Broker open and showings begin May 5. A rare opportunity: A bright and beautiful, historic 4+BR/3.1BA home spanning 3 lots near Indian Hill Train and several parks and schools! The 1/2 acre yard (149' wide) surrounding the home creates a setting that feels truly expansive. This 1835 farmhouse was reinvigorated with a significant 2004 renovation and addition including a kitchen and newer basement, new windows, roof, exterior siding around the home, outdoor stone patio with fire pit and more! Gracious, well-proportioned rooms and a thoughtful floor plan offer the ideal balance of everyday living and entertaining. So much here and so much opportunity! Charming foyer with curved staircase opens to a bright living room hosting stunning windows, gas fireplace, dining room with large bay window, as well as the distinctive paneled library with authentic fireplace and extraordinary paneling walls and millwork. Fabulous original wide plank hardwood floors and architectural details add warmth and character. A generous renovated kitchen is the center of the home, featuring SubZero Wolf and Bosch appliances plus loads of cabinets and side pantry/bar in the breakfast area. It leads to both the spacious bright family room as well as patio and backyard retreat. A screened porch extends the first floor living space and offers an additional easy indoor-outdoor connection to the private fenced back yard. The rarely found attached heated garage is an added luxury! Upstairs, the primary suite is spacious and inviting, complete with a fireplace, built-ins, and closet space. The attached "dressing room" provides an opportunity to re-imagine the space and expand the primary suite bathroom and closet. Three more generous bedrooms and two bathrooms and a back staircase complete the second floor. Two basement areas include the "new 2004 rec room" under the family room addition featuring large and wide windows and high ceilings. A separate original basement area under the original house with utilities and laundry, as well as an additional basement room with abundant storage. Set privately behind a gracious circular driveway, embraced by mature landscaping and a welcoming setting, this solid, well-cared-for home in one of Winnetka's most desirable and walkable locations. A must-see opportunity to create something truly special.
