Sophisticated 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath co-op residence in Evanston's iconic Sherman Gardens, designed by architect Henry K. Holsman around a professionally landscaped courtyard - a rare mid-century modern setting unlike anything else in Evanston. In 2017, this unit was completely renovated-down to the studs; new kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, lighting, doors and hardware with the help of a professional designer. Every detail and finish was carefully selected. Since then, the unit has been meticulously maintained and lightly lived in. It is in like-new condition! The open-concept living and dining room is anchored by a large bay window overlooking the courtyard and finished with modern track lighting. The fully renovated kitchen features a U-shaped layout with a center island, waterfall-edge quartzite countertops, white wood cabinetry with multiple pull-out pantry drawers, a white tile backsplash, and recessed lighting. Stainless steel appliances include a gas range, French door refrigerator, and microwave hood, alongside a single-bowl stainless sink with pull-out spray faucet positioned to overlook the courtyard. The three included bar stools complete the breakfast bar. The primary bedroom offers a large, professionally organized double closet, while a second bedroom - currently used as an office - includes two sets of double closets. A third bedroom offers additional flexible space for guests, an office, or a den. Both bathrooms have been completely redone with quartzite-topped white wood vanities and marble tile flooring; the full bath features a marble hexagon tile floor and walk-in shower, and the powder room includes a new toilet and adjacent utility closet. A large linen closet in the hallway adds further storage, along with a foyer coat closet. New solid wood doors and hardware are found throughout, and three wall air conditioning units - in the living room, primary bedroom, and second bedroom - provide cooling comfort. Engineered hardwood flooring runs throughout the unit. Enjoy beautiful views from the unit of campus, downtown Evanston (including seasonal glimpses of the lake), and the interior garden. Located within the Sherman Gardens co-op community, this residence offers walkability to downtown Evanston, shopping, dining, entertainment, both Metra and el trains, Lake Michigan and Northwestern University-all within a distinctive architectural setting rarely found on the market. A true turnkey opportunity for buyers seeking classic Evanston charm paired with completely modern systems and finishes.
