When an estate can illustrate its own story without words, then you know you have discovered something truly unique. Magically set on one of Winnetka's most coveted private lanes, this home is secluded yet within walking distance to award winning Winnetka schools, town, and the Indian Hill train stop. This English manor masterpiece by renowned Jazz Age architect Russell S. Walcott hits a new high note with a dynamite refresh that includes a newly renovated de Giulio custom kitchen & an exquisite exterior revamp complemented with charming Chinese Chippendale-style gates, entertaining terraced patios & a boutique hotel-level pool within the secluded yard. Step inside to pure majestic beauty that could never be replicated today with the formal foyer outfitted with hand-painted hardwood floors, meticulous hard-carved millwork, and fresh grass cloth wall coverings. An enchanting newly refreshed kitchen beautifully lifts the entire first floor to a new level of curated beauty. Outfitted with Gucci-inspired bamboo handles, custom hand-painted Delft-style tiles, antique mirrored cabinet fronts and whimsical pendant lighting, the kitchen is perfectly in keeping with the house's design yet modernized with every possible convenience: heated floor, 3 sinks, thick mitered Quartz c-tops, built-in desk, & all new deluxe S/S appliances: Wolf 6-burner range, 2 Miele DWs & Sub-Zero. Newly lacquered summer green Butler's Pantry energizes this walk-through space leading to the most magnificent solarium breakfast room overlooking the lush & manicured backyard oasis. The formal dining room boasts hand-painted de Gournay wallpaper with hand-painted turquoise Chinese fretwork moldings applied over antique mirroring adding dramatic sparkle.
