Property Description

804 Greenwood is an exceptional custom residence designed by renowned North Shore architect, Doug Reynolds, in East Wilmette's coveted CAGE neighborhood, just a short walk to Lake Michigan and with easy access to Langdon Beach and Elmwood Dunes. Set on an oversized, professionally landscaped corner lot, this architecturally distinctive home blends timeless master craftsmanship, remarkable natural light, and beautifully scaled living spaces rarely found in newer construction near the lake. Defined by its signature east and south-facing arched windows, soaring ceilings, custom millwork, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow, the home was thoughtfully designed for both elegant entertaining and everyday comfort. A recently completed custom four-season sunroom with infrared heating serves as one of the home's defining spaces - a stunning year-round retreat surrounded by walls of windows, skylights, and garden views that blur the line between indoors and out. It offers an extraordinary setting for morning coffee, quiet afternoons, or effortless entertaining. At the center of the home is a beautifully updated kitchen that opens directly to the family room and overlooks the private landscaped grounds which includes an expansive bluestone patio, custom firepit, a sunny vegetable garden, and generous green space with room to run, throw a ball, or set up an ice rink. The luxurious primary suite offers a true escape, featuring a stone-surround fireplace, coffered ceilings, dual walk-in closets, and a recently renovated spa-inspired bath with a soaking tub, an oversized steam shower, and heated floors. Generously sized secondary bedrooms and beautifully appointed baths continue the home's thoughtful design and architectural consistency. The 2nd-floor laundry room is another bonus. The 3rd floor was designed for versatility, with a full bathroom and two additional rooms that can serve as bedrooms, guest rooms, office space or as teen hangout spaces. The lower level offers exceptional flexibility, with a massive open recreation space - a perfect spot for a golf simulator or other fun. There is also a media room (or guest suite), full bathroom, and a flex room with a custom stone-surround fireplace that is currently being used as a wellness room. Consistent with the reputation of a Reynolds Architecture residence, 804 Greenwood was designed as a legacy property with a timeless architectural sensibility that feels deeply connected to the surrounding East Wilmette neighborhood. It blends seamlessly with the CAGE's famous treelined, brick paved streets, century-old homes, and old-world feel...a rare offering for newer construction. This home proves that you can have both privacy and serenity while still living in the heart of East Wilmette with beaches, Plaza de Lago, downtown Wilmette, Central Elementary, and easy transportation at your fingertips. You truly can have it all.
