Overflowing with vintage charm and architectural beauty, this landmark Evanston home seamlessly blends historical significance with modern updates designed for comfortable, convenient living. Designed in 1895 by architect Robert C. Spencer-a contemporary, colleague, and former officemate of Frank Lloyd Wright-this Queen Anne/Prairie-style home is a rare architectural gem. It proudly showcases elements characteristic of both periods: the intricate ornamentation of the Queen Anne era paired with early Prairie School motifs, most notably the horizontal lines of the two porches, ornate facade details, and original diamond-patterned leaded glass windows. These thoughtful design features give the home its striking curb appeal and a special place in Evanston’s architectural history. Inside, the home offers a harmonious flow starting with a grand entry hall, newly outfitted with maple hardwood floors that extend throughout the main level. The kitchen was completely renovated in 2022 and now features white shaker cabinets, butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, a stylish backsplash, gooseneck faucet, eye-catching blue tile accent wall, and a built-in bench dining nook. Just off the kitchen, a sunlit mudroom was added, offering abundant windows, generous storage, and convenient access to the backyard. The main level also includes several expansive, light-filled living spaces: a formal dining room, a large living room, and a cozy second living area anchored by a beautifully updated fireplace with wood accents, bold blue tilework, and custom built-ins. Upstairs, the second floor offers four generously sized bedrooms with refinished hardwood floors throughout. The full bathroom-gut-renovated with striking blue tile and gold fixtures-connects directly to the primary suite. The fourth bedroom, complete with fireplace and elegant curved windows, makes an ideal office or upstairs lounge. An additional powder room, also renovated with gold accents and a bespoke mural, completes the floor. The third floor features two more spacious bedrooms with new carpet and a second full bathroom, renovated into a tranquil, spa-like retreat with pitched ceilings and a skylight. The larger of the two bedrooms includes a charming turret room-fully finished with new drywall and electrical-perfect as a whimsical reading nook, a kid’s hideaway, or extra storage. The basement offers ample unfinished space, ideal for storage or future expansion. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with a lovely wraparound front porch, a large back deck perfect for entertaining, and a spacious backyard leading to a two-car detached garage.
