About 730 9th St
Timeless charm meets thoughtful updates in this beautifully maintained East Wilmette home, nestled just blocks from Lake Michigan, Gillson Park, and vibrant Downtown Wilmette. Situated within the award-winning District 39 and New Trier High School boundaries, this 5-bedroom residence offers an unbeatable combination of location, comfort, and flow. With fantastic natural light and a seamless layout, the first floor connects inviting, well-proportioned rooms that are perfect for both entertaining and everyday living. From the moment you step into the inviting foyer, classic architectural details like crown molding, custom wainscoting, and hardwood floors set the tone for this welcoming home. Oversized windows fill the sunroom with natural light and breezes-creating a comfortable space to relax or entertain across seasons. The living room, anchored by a fireplace and picture windows, flows directly into the dining room-ideal for casual meals or formal gatherings. The kitchen has been refreshed with brand-new countertops, backsplash, hardware, and lighting (2024-25), and features Bosch appliances, a Jenn-Air cooktop with new burner assemblies (2023), and an adjacent breakfast area. Just off the kitchen, a light-filled family room with French doors leading to the backyard is well-suited for movie nights and entertaining. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms, including a tranquil primary suite with a renovated en-suite bath featuring a marble-topped Palmer console, Kohler fixtures, and marble tile (2021). The second full bathroom was also fully remodeled in 2021 with cohesive, timeless finishes. A second-floor laundry area-complete with newer LG washer and dryer (2019)-adds everyday convenience. The finished third-floor attic offers even more flexibility, with space for a home office, playroom, or a sixth bedroom-perfect for evolving household needs or overnight guests. The finished lower level includes a recreation room and a fifth bedroom with its own full en-suite bath-offering a private space for guests, a home office, or extended living. Outside, the fully fenced yard is a gardener's dream, with professionally designed perennial beds, mature trees, and fresh landscaping throughout the front and side yards (2024). The newly repaired and repainted deck (2023-24) offers a peaceful spot to dine outdoors or enjoy the shade of the lush yard. Additional updates include a tear-off roof and gutters (2020), high-efficiency Mon-Ray storm/screen windows (2021), SpacePak central air conditioning (2019), and a brand-new boiler (2025). With thoughtful upgrades, architectural detail, and an unbeatable East Wilmette location, 730 9th Street offers a rare opportunity to enjoy one of the North Shore's most desirable neighborhoods.
