Beautiful historic Victorian home in east Highland Park located within walking distance of nightlife, train, schools and Lake Michigan. Long time owners have lovingly cared for this beauty, making sophisticated updates while keeping the integrity and charm of this important home of Highland Park. The first floor features a welcoming foyer which opens to an elegant living room with large windows and 10ft ceilings, formal dining room, parlor, a recently updated kitchen with white cabinets, farmhouse sink, wolf range and center island. Off the kitchen is a comfortable casual family room with full bath, second staircase and sliders out to the deck and fenced backyard. The second floor features three spacious bedrooms including a wonderful primary bedroom, a hall full bath and an additional office/extra room, originally most likely a sleeping porch. The lower level is a large unfinished space with laundry and possibilities of a work room, storage, etc. Overlook the lush English garden inspired backyard from the home's wrap around porch. Spacious 3 car garage offers abundant storage as well as a separate/private unfinished room above that has endless possibilities: art studio, office, workout, or even another bedroom. This is truly a special home.
