Welcome to 2131 Kenilworth Avenue, a classic center-entry brick colonial located in the heart of Wilmette's desirable Kenilworth Gardens neighborhood. This 4-bedroom, 3 1/2-bath home has beautiful architectural details and exceptional renovations throughout. The exterior boasts a matching brick addition with a complementary rear entryway. Inside, you will again find an architecturally cohesive home - extensive millwork, lovely archways, and hardwood floors across four fully-finished floors of living space updated to suit today's lifestyle. Step into the welcoming foyer that flows seamlessly into the central hall, setting the stage for the home's generous room sizes and excellent flow. The large, sunny living room is the perfect gathering spot, featuring a beautiful fireplace and distinctive coved ceilings. The spacious dining room makes entertaining effortless and connects directly to a fantastic cook's kitchen. With double ovens, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, an island cooktop, and abundant storage, the kitchen also offers excellent views of the backyard. You'll love the home's wonderful family room and breakfast room addition, complete with beamed ceilings, custom built-ins, a second fireplace, and a convenient mudroom with sliding French doors. A guest powder room rounds out the first floor. Upstairs, a bright landing with a delightful window seat leads to a spacious primary suite featuring a walk-in closet with custom cabinetry and en-suite bathroom with dual sinks and additional linen closet. Two additional large bedrooms with ample closet space share a renovated hall bathroom. The third floor includes a spacious fourth bedroom, another full bath, and a fabulous home office or possible fifth bedroom. The finished lower level impresses with its natural light, excellent ceiling height, and beautiful built-ins. It features a spacious recreation room, craft room, laundry, and utility area, plus a large crawlspace for additional storage. Outside, you'll enjoy relaxing on the flagstone patio or playing in the professionally landscaped backyard. The home's stunning brick exterior, private driveway, and oversized two-car brick garage add to the appeal. Ideally located near schools, the train, downtown Wilmette, and everything the North Shore has to offer, this carefully curated home has grace, timeless beauty, and is built to last.
