Property Description
Welcome to 326 Ridge Avenue, an exquisite home where character and charm blend seamlessly with opportunities to customize and expand. Nestled on a lush .36-acre lot (85' x 187') in a premier, in-town location, this timeless property features a 4-bedroom, 2.2-bath main house and a rare, two-story coach house. Think high ceilings, marble fireplace, elegant built-ins, crown molding, and sun-drenched spaces that exude warmth and sophistication. The main house layout offers the perfect canvas for your vision: spacious living and dining rooms, a flexible office/play area off the kitchen, and a large eat-in kitchen that opens to a tranquil screened porch. The primary suite includes a tandem room ideal for a nursery, home office, or the walk-in closet of your dreams. A walk-up attic adds even more possibilities, from additional storage to a studio or bonus room. Beyond the main residence, there's a coach house with living room, kitchen, upstairs great room, bedroom, bath, two fireplaces, and its own screened porch... ideal for home office, guest quarters, rental income, or creative retreat. Located in one of Winnetka's most sought-after neighborhoods, this home is just steps from the train, award-winning schools, parks, and downtown's vibrant offerings: grab coffee at Hometown, enjoy lunch at 501 Local, shop at Bunny & Babe, and end the day with dinner at Pomeroy. Beaches, bike trails, and the Winnetka Park District's many amenities (ice arena, golf, tennis, paddle, and more) are all nearby, along with the historic Schmidt-Burnham log house. Being sold As-Is, the home is a treasure for those looking to restore and re-imagine-a chance to create a modern masterpiece while preserving and building on history. After 49 years of loving care by the same family, 326 Ridge Avenue is ready for its next chapter. Don't miss this extraordinary opportunity to own a special piece of Winnetka history at this fabulous address!
