Red brick, colonial charm, and a coveted corner setting make this Sutton Place residence a rare find in a community of only 12 homes. Well cared for, this solidly built townhome has been continually maintained and improved with care. The traditional living and dining rooms offer flexible space, with beautiful hardwood floors and neutral decor, so you can move right in. The well-planned, bright white kitchen features peninsula seating, plenty of storage, and generous counter space. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a dressing area and private bath, joined by two more bedrooms and a hall bath. As a corner residence, the home has extra windows that bring in more natural light. The mechanicals are excellent, with a new furnace and air conditioning in 2025 and upgraded electrical. A lawn sprinkler system makes life easier. Step out to a private brick patio with a natural gas grill, perfect for summer evenings. The home has a 1-car attached garage plus a designated exterior parking space. The central location makes it easy to get to the village, train, parks, schools, and the rec center. Closing January 22, 2027 or earlier by mutual agreement.
North Shore, located between Evanston and Lake Forest, is a residential and lakeside Chicago neighborhood with leafy ravines and a shoreline park system. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Metra stations and village centers along Green Bay Road, where independent cafes, bookstores, and small galleries line walkable blocks. Writers Theatre and the North Shore Center for the Performing Arts anchor the cultural calendar, while the Chicago Botanic Garden sets a seasonal rhythm just beyond the lakefront. Streets of brick Colonials, Tudors, and mid-century homes sit behind mature trees and stone walls. Lake Michigan beaches and the Green Bay Trail shape daily routines with long, linear outdoor corridors. Commuter rail and lakefront drives connect the area to downtown without changing its quiet, curated pace.
