The Story
2712 Harrison Street
Nestled on an exceptional 75' x 169' oversized lot on one of Northwest Evanston's most beloved streets, this beautifully updated home seamlessly blends timeless character with the conveniences of modern living. From the inviting front porch to the thoughtfully designed interior, every space has been crafted for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. The expansive main level offers an ideal layout, featuring gracious formal living and dining rooms, a welcoming family room, and a beautifully appointed kitchen with white cabinetry, granite countertops, a center island, and a sunny breakfast area overlooking the backyard. A dedicated first-floor office provides the perfect work-from-home space, while the mudroom and powder room add everyday functionality. Outside, the oversized, fully fenced yard is a rare find, offering incredible space to play, garden, or entertain. A brick paver patio creates the perfect setting for summer gatherings, all complemented by a rare to find three-car garage. The second floor is designed with family living in mind, featuring three bedrooms, a beautifully updated hall bath, convenient oversized laundry room, and a cozy reading or homework nook with custom built-in bookshelves. Occupying the entire third floor, the private primary suite feels like its own retreat, complete with a sitting area ideal for reading, yoga, or a quiet morning coffee, customized closets, and a spa-inspired bath featuring a soaking tub and a steam shower. The finished lower level expands the home's living space even further with a large recreation room, wet bar, game area, full bath, exterior access, and abundant storage. Originally built in 1893 and thoughtfully renovated, this home perfectly balances historic charm with today's lifestyle. Ideally located near parks, schools, Central Street shops and restaurants, Metra, and with convenient access to the Edens Expressway, this is a home you'll enjoy for years to come.
