Right out of the pages of a fairytale, this vintage charmer is full of Tudor charm & character. Featuring original hardwood floors from 1927 which have recently been re-stained (August 2020), this home will transport you back in time to an era where craftsmanship was second-to-none and the quality of materials and attention to detail were of the utmost importance. In fact, this home has ties to a piece of Chicago history. Originally owned by James C. Petrillo, for whom the music shell in Grant park is named, this house remained in the Petrillo family until about 10 years ago. Mr. Petrillo was the leader of American Federation of Musicians among many other contributions to labor and music in Chicago and North America, and his family loved this home and were proud to live in it. Enjoy crown molding, arches and niches, and many other architectural details and built-ins throughout this cozy, sophisticated home. There is a bedroom and bathroom on the main floor, along with formal living and dining spaces and a "3 season room" On the second floor you will find 3 additional bedrooms and one full, shared bath. Recent improvements include upgraded landscaping, a $2,000 upgrade to the garage, new windows in 2016, patio upgrade in 2021, and a $10,000 boiler (ductless & tankless) for the radiant heat. There's a detached 1 car garage as well as a partial, finished basement. Situated in sought-after Northwest Evanston, this home truly will delight your senses and make you feel right at home!
