If charm, character, architectural detail and historic fun facts are your thing, look no further. Welcome to the Hearthstone, situated at the corner of Dempster and Elmwood, and built in 1923 across from the former site of Evanston High School. Designed by architect Samuel N Crowen, the architect of Chicago's Biograph Theater, this unit has original art tiles on the fireplace surround by Ernest Batchelder. From his 1927 tile catalog: The fireplace is a permanent built-in feature of a room. Rugs, wall coverings, draperies and furniture may be changed ... but the fireplace remains a source of perennial satisfaction.... This gorgeous, living room, woodburning fireplace with its earth tone art tiles surround and chimney had a complete restoration in 2018 and was inspected in 2022. It is one of the few units in the building where the tiles have not been painted over. Some of these decorative tiles can also be seen randomly placed on the building's north and east exposures. Additional living room highlights: 4 hand carved alabaster stone wall sconces provide ambient lighting while new north facing windows offer open views. A long gallery style hallway with archways connects the living spaces but also allows for separation, a convenience for those working from home regularly. The bedroom retreat nestled off the hallway has an east inner courtyard view and a fully organized walk-in closet. Adjacent to the bedroom is the recently refreshed bathroom with a new sink and toilet and newer light fixture. The hallway ends at the spacious dining room with its exposed brick wall. Here there is the possibility for a separate home office, craft area, library or den. A bright galley kitchen completes the package with its warm, maple tone 42 cabinets, granite counters, exposed brick wall, a window over the sink and a new screen door open to the recently re-stained walkway. Step out to gather your herbs or around the corner to a semi-private, shared bistro style nook. Building updates: roof 2020, landscaping 2020, boiler 2021, common area windows 2022, balcony power wash and stain/seal 2022. City parking lot 23 is across the street for permit parking. Appreciate the convenient location very near the Dempster EL, restaurants, & shops. Downtown Evanston is minutes away as are Jewel, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and the lakefront.

It's all about that private rooftop deck and those skyline views! (And the home is pretty darn swell as well.) This is the one for that person who loves a stunning top-floor home with newer construction finishes, and relishes the spring, summer, and fall (and maybe Covid winter) days & nights outside. There isn't a better home in the price point that offers all this home does. Start with the dramatic living room with nearly floor-to ceiling west-facing windows for an abundance of natural light. Add in a custom wall of built in shelving to set off the room with class, and an abundance of width for oversized furniture to fill out the room. The showpiece kitchen includes crisp white cabinetry, quartz counters, Bosch stainless steel appliances, & subway backsplash tiles. And it would be remiss of me if I didn't mention that snazzy blue accent color on the long peninsula with overhang. The primary bedroom in back is quite generous in size and includes an organized walk-in closet. The primary bath has finishes nearly everyone would want with double-bowl white vanity, quartz counters, heated floors, and porcelain tiled oversized shower. The second bedroom is very well proportioned with a crisply finished hall bath right next door. Of course the show stopper of the home is when you take the interior steps up to your private roof deck that spans the entire length of the building and offers not only fantastic space to lounge, grill, dine, & entertain, but also allows for all of this against the backdrop of the beautiful downtown skyline. Truly a spectacular space to get away from it all. One carport covered parking space is included. And don't underestimate the convenience of this location either. Walk to any of the restaurants & shops on Elston, (including the really good Target), meet up with friends for bowling at the historic Diversey Bowl, walk along Logan Blvd, or stroll over to the riverwalk at Diversey. Highway access can't be easier either. Try finding all that this stunning home offers for anywhere close to the price point elsewhere. This is the end of your search!
