About This Home

730 Lake Avenue

This iconic residence has been beautifully renovated and thoughtfully expanded to meet the demands of today's luxury lifestyle and is situated on an expansive ~half-acre lot along one of East Wilmette's most prestigious red brick streets. Behind a stately iron fence, a charming wraparound front porch invites you into a home where every detail has been meticulously curated. Originally renovated in 2005 and expanded in 2009, the home seamlessly fuses classic architectural charm with high-end contemporary finishes. At its heart lies a stunning NuHaus kitchen, illuminated by a dramatic skylight and outfitted with professional-grade appliances, all overlooking lush, landscaped grounds. The expansion introduced a butler's pantry, mudroom, second half-bath, family room, spacious lower-level recreation room with full bath, and a coveted three-car garage. Designed for both comfort and entertaining, the outdoor spaces include a private bluestone terrace and an upper-level patio with built-in grilling station. Inside, original features such as a grand wooden staircase, rich hardwood floors, and elegant leaded-glass windows preserve the home's timeless character, while modern upgrades offer ultimate convenience. Upstairs, the second level includes four generous bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite complete with a marble bath and custom walk-in closet, plus a second laundry area. The versatile third floor offers additional space for bedrooms, home offices, or guest quarters, along with a full bath. Fireplaces in the den and family room are operational, while the living room fireplace has not been used by the current owner. All fireplaces and chimneys are conveyed in as-is condition. Ideally located just moments from Lake Michigan, downtown Wilmette, the Metra, and within the sought-after Central Elementary and New Trier High School districts, this is a rare opportunity to own a landmark property in a premier location.
