Property Description
Discover timeless elegance at 225 Hamilton in Southeast Evanston, just steps from Lake Michigan, beaches, schools, trains, restaurants, and shops. Recently updated, this enchanting home blends classic architectural details with modern comforts, creating a space that feels both gracious and livable. The welcoming foyer, anchored by a brick fireplace, connects easily to every room on the main level. A sitting room or office features a coved ceiling and built-in cabinetry, while the living room-with its tiled fireplace-opens through French doors to a porch overlooking Stockham Place Park. The dining room, with its own fireplace and built-in oak buffet, offers a warm backdrop for gatherings. Function meets style in the butler's pantry, complete with sink, second dishwasher, ice maker, and abundant cabinetry, leading to a light-filled kitchen with breakfast area. The home's centerpiece is the beamed cathedral Great Room-dramatic yet comfortable-with a fireplace, bookcases, and soaring Palladian windows. It's equally suited for entertaining or quiet family evenings. Upstairs, two beautifully renovated bathrooms complement private bedrooms, while the third floor offers flexible space for a guest suite, teen retreat, or creative studio.
