Don't miss this fully remodeled brick home with a modern industrial loft vibe, tucked on a quiet dead-end street with a private, fenced yard-perfect for entertaining inside and out. A great condo alternative, it features updated baths, hardwood floors, a bright living room, and an upgraded kitchen with newer stainless appliances, a farmhouse sink, and a sliding barn door leading to the finished basement. The basement offers flexible space with above-grade windows, vinyl wood flooring, a second full bath with double vanity and walk-in shower, multiple closets, and a full laundry room with newer washer and dryer. Enjoy a separate dining room that opens to a back deck, plus a patio, yard, and a 2.5-car garage with a party door and covered veranda. With newer mechanicals, modern finishes, and a location in the Willard School District just minutes from the CTA, Northwestern, the lakefront, and downtown Evanston-this home also makes an excellent Airbnb opportunity.
