LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! This dripping-with-charm beauty, EXPANDED and UPDATED to PERFECTION, is located right in the heart of Northbrook--where everyone wants to be! Nestled on an outstanding oversized, park-like .4 acre lot within the popular "Highlands" neighborhood, enjoy being only blocks to town, train, library, parks and K-5 Greenbriar elementary school--it just doesn't get any better!!! The classic Georgian exterior with its stately pillared terrace is the first glimpse of wonderful things to come and a winding brick walkway and attractive covered front porch provides a most welcoming entrance. Step inside and see gleaming hardwood floors, generous room sizes and a fantastic open floor plan throughout. Elegant describes the sun-drenched living/family room complete with inviting fireplace (#1 of 3!), oversized windows and pretty floor-to-ceiling built-ins which flows into the banquet-sized dining room with another fireplace making every dining experience feel so special; a French door opens to the adjacent sunroom with windows everywhere allowing lush green views in every direction. Gourmet cooks will love the all-white kitchen boasting a big center island AND a breakfast bar seating four which features top stainless appliances and a large eating area opening completely to the super-sized 23' x 20' family room with 3rd fireplace boasting great room proportions. Dramatic skylit and vaulted ceilings add exciting architectural interest and there is a wet bar with fridge for entertaining fun. The party can continue outdoors through two sets of French door sliders leading out to the pretty brick patio and spectacular backyard perfect for any sport activity or a future pool with plenty of room left over for the swing set, outdoor fireplace and so much more. The library/office #1 with privacy pocket doors, is conveniently located on the main level and could be the 5th bedroom if needed; another 2nd office is located on the upper level. Four spacious bedrooms are located on the second level. The primary bedroom, with two closets including an organized walk-in, has a luxurious bath with dual vanities and tower, glass-enclosed shower and jacuzzi; the adjoining office could be a sitting/exercise room or another walk-in closet, if desired.
