Evanston, IL 60202

Distinguished 1926 two-flat + ADU possibility on garden level, located in one of Evanston's historic neighborhoods. Set on an extra-wide lot, this architecturally striking property blends timeless character with exceptional space and curb appeal. The stately brick building sits gracefully on the west side of the lot, while the east side showcases beautifully landscaped grounds anchored by a magnificent 200-year-old tree-creating a serene, park-like setting that feels truly special. Inside, the lobby reflects the superior craftsmanship of a bygone era, with three-brick-thick walls, original millwork, and elegant tile detailing. The first and second floor units are generously scaled and rich in classic details. Each features a dramatic vaulted hallway, original woodwork, and an expansive living room centered around a wood-burning fireplace. The formal dining room ideal for entertaining adjoins the kitchen with a butler's pantry and bistro dining area. Three spacious bedrooms, two full baths complete the first and second floor units. The garden level has a studio apartment, perfect for an ADU (FAQs in Documents), accessed through a private entrance from the front lobby, offers flexible space with a comfortable living room/bedroom, efficient kitchen, and full bath-ideal for guests, extended family or possible rental. The lower level also includes a large recreation room, bonus room and two storage areas which could be used to expand the garden level unit. Rounding out the garden level is a boiler room and a shared laundry room with two washers and two dryers. Outside, two three-car garages plus a long driveway provide a total of six garage spaces (which can be accessed from alley), an exceptional amenity. Zoned R-3
