The first floor also includes a full bathroom, a sunroom with a wall of windows, and a family room with large windows/vaulted ceilings overlooking the massive backyard. Up the Colonial staircase, you'll find a huge primary suite with two skylights, an additional bathroom, and two more bedrooms. The lower level offers a recreation room, kitchenette, bedroom, half bath, laundry, and storage space. This home is filled with unique elements that provide warmth and character, all meticulously maintained. Nearby, you'll find the top-rated library, farmers' market, restaurants, shops, and services. The neighborhood, comprised of many 1920s and 1930s homes, is one of Skokie's hidden treasures, even part of Skokie Historical Society.
