Once upon a time, in the picturesque village of Winnetka, a charming storybook home was crafted, now awaiting its next fortunate owner. This delightful cottage boasts enchanting details: arched & painted doorways reminiscent of a fairy tale entrance, and a grand, carved wood double staircase that gracefully connects the home's levels. The original sconces add a warm glow to the ambiance, with a Juliet balcony like a castle turret. The living room is a generous space with a beautiful stone hearth, perfect for cozy gatherings, framed by windows that bring in plenty of light. French doors lead you to the bright dining room, opening to a kitchen fit for any culinary adventure. It features an eat-in bar, all new appliances, and a radiant heated floor for comfort. The family room is vaulted with beautiful beams and doors that open to the inviting back yard and deck. The primary bedroom is a peaceful retreat with built-in closets and a full bathroom. A quaint library ladder provides access to a small loft space, ideal for a quiet reading nook. Two additional bedrooms and full baths complete the second floor, with a private staircase from one bedroom leading you back to the kitchen in a whimsical twist. The full basement is partially finished, offering ample storage, hang-out space, and a laundry room, with room to create more magical living areas. A lovely private back yard and patio, enclosed by a new fence, provide a serene outdoor escape. An attached, heated two-car garage and a new driveway offer space for multiple vehicles. The home is equipped with a new high-efficiency boiler and a new washer & dryer, blending modern convenience with its timeless charm. This beautiful Cotswolds Cottage is just minutes from the Metra, the highway, schools, and the forest preserves, with Nick Corwin Park around the corner and Bell Woods Park across the way. This gem offers wonderful living space where you can live happily ever after!
