This is the ultra cool special like no other three bedroom two bath SE Evanston home that you have been waiting for! Thank goodness you missed out on those other houses is how you will feel once you explore 516 Elmwood. The rustic country style Tudor with curb cut allows you to park the suburban in the garage and two more cars on the side drive to get you off the tree lined street and into paradise fast. Once the original curvy heavy wooden front door glides open the reveal begins. You will feel how open, spacious, and warm the space is. You will first notice the freshly painted neutral natural colors and the refinished wood floors. Then you will be drawn from your initial panoramic pause to the heart of the home which is the massive, centered wood burning fireplace that is sure to unite everyone, even the pets. As you wade in deeper, you will feel the outdoors through the abundant leaded glass windows which showcase your forested back yard. The kitchen is open with a smart design for those who love to cook while gazing at the outdoors. The comforts of central air may not be enough to remind you that with all the natural scenery, you are under roof and safe from the changing elements outdoors. The remodeled bathroom? Well, you've got to see it to appreciate its tasteful original style. The current owners enjoy having their bedroom on the first level because it feels like a private wing of the home has radiant floor heat, and provides direct views and to that amazing yard. However, because there is a second side door entrance, the previous longtime owner used the space as a music teaching studio. This floorplan could be an ideal setup for any service based home business requiring meeting clients face to face. Upstairs there are two more large comfortable bedrooms and a central bathroom equipped with a Toto bidet. There is ample closet space and then even more hidden closet space! The lower level functions brilliantly as an office with plenty of extra room for hobbies, crafts, and laundry. From the laundry room there is convenient walk out access to that wonderful yard. You will fall in love with this unique home when you experience it. Tear off shingle roof 2021, water heater 2018. From the house you will be walking distance from trains, buses, schools, the beach, restaurants and shopping.
