Property Description

Step into a piece of history with this beautifully updated and expanded early 20th-century home, seamlessly blending timeless elegance with contemporary comforts. Nestled on a rare .70 acre lot, this northeast Evanston residence offers the perfect blend of classic luxury and modern charm. Built in 1911 for Swedish Ambassador Oscar Haugen, and designed by architect Augustus Nyden, this landmark and Evanston Preservation Award winning home showcases exquisite period details, including original hardwoods, barrel ceiling, ornate crown moldings, grand fireplaces and shadowbox staircase, all preserved to maintain the home's historic integrity. Thoughtfully updated to meet today's standards, the home features a tastefully designed kitchen with custom Wood Mode cabinetry, Subzero, Wolf and Miele appliances, and honed granite atop an 11' island. The home boasts expansive rooms perfect for entertaining, including formal living and dining rooms, a family room, and a grand entry foyer evoking images of a bygone era. An office, 4 season porch, mudroom and first floor laundry complete the picture. The second floor features a master suite with a coveted walk-in closet and an ensuite bathroom. The primary bathroom offers spa-like amenities with whirlpool tub and steam shower. Additional bedrooms offer ample space and modern conveniences, with many featuring ensuite bathrooms. The third floor great room has a multitude of uses and includes an additional bedroom with ensuite bath. The exterior is as impressive as the interior, featuring a bluestone patio with firepit and a front patio for entertaining, a restored carriage house converted to a garage with a 2 bed, 1 bath apartment above perfect for guests, au pair, secondary office, studio, guest suite, teen party pad, or rental income. The original Ludowici clay tile roof was replaced during the renovation process with the same Ludowici tiles! Modern technology meets historic charm with an ADT custom home alarm system, low voltage landscape/driveway lighting, Generac natural gas generator, tankless water heaters, 3 a/c units, and 3 sump pumps. Situated in a prestigious neighborhood on arguably one of the best streets in Evanston, the location is in close proximity to Lighthouse Beach, Northwestern U, Wilmette Harbor and offers easy access to top-rated schools, dining, shopping, and cultural landmarks.
