This is the kind of home people talk about but rarely find. Right in the beating heart of downtown Grayslake, this beautifully restored historic home delivers timeless character & practical, modern living. The grand entry showcases original 18-foot fir hardwood planks with oversized baseboards & custom millwork, & the kitchen is built for both function & appeal with solid hickory cabinetry, striking black quartz countertops, & newly refinished Brazilian cherry wood flooring. The upstairs primary suite is a true showstopper with towering ceilings, full views of your private, professionally landscaped backyard, & a bathroom that flat-out spoils you with an air jet tub, double shower, & endless hot water. Step outside & you're in your own private sanctuary with a fire pit, deck, patio, & not a thing out of place. You're blocks from the best of everything Grayslake offers, including your favorite cafe, the farmers market, or Friday night music downtown. Add in major upgrades: New A/C ('25), flooring ('25), paint ('25), furnace ('24), & this home is ready to serve your needs today, tomorrow, & for years to come. If you've been waiting for "the one," stop. This is it. ***UPDATES: For full list of updates, see "List of Improvements" document under Additional Info tab.***
