Property Description

They don't build them like this anymore, but they should! This solidly built custom Hemphill home is ideally located in sought-after East Winnetka and offers timeless character, quality craftsmanship, and thoughtful updates. Built in 1936 with exceptional materials and lovingly maintained by only two owners, this home combines classic elegance with modern comfort. The spacious living room features decorative plaster crown molding, a gas-log fireplace, and built-in cabinetry, while the formal dining room showcases equally impressive molding and elegant wainscoting. The kitchen is appointed with high-end appliances, beautiful wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and an eating area. A welcoming family room overlooks the expansive fenced backyard and slate patio. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms each offer walk-in closets. The second level also includes an updated primary bath, a hall bath, and an en-suite bath, along with a large cedar closet and a deck overlooking the backyard. The basement offers exceptional additional space with four separate rooms: a recreation room with wood-burning fireplace, a work/hobby room, a "canning"/storage room, and a utility area with laundry. Direct access to the oversized attached two-car garage adds convenience. Set on a wide lot, 478 Sunset offers a wonderful floor plan just a few blocks from parks, schools, beaches, the train, and more.
