715 Asbury Ave., Evanston, IL 60202

Fiercely loved home is on the market for the first time in 40 years as owners have down-sized. With only the front yard facing Asbury, this center-entry home, yard and garage opens directly onto Monroe, a quiet one way street, right by the Monroe Tot Lot. The vibrant, colorful and often magical front garden is a mainstay on this corner - so well known that the property is often just called Margaret's Garden, the same name was hand painted on a prominent stone. Inside, you have hardwood floors throughout, an airy living room with a large picture window, a separate dining room, mid-century archways and a white retro kitchen. Upstairs are three well-sized bedrooms and the full bathroom. The basement is high and unobstructed and just waiting to be finished into extra living space. A screened porch, accessible off the living room, opens into the deep and secluded back yard, a sanctuary with mature trees, flower beds and a wooden fence. There is a detached garage. Home is well maintained and sold as-is. Roof is approx ten years old while the furnace is approx six years old. If you have a green thumb come on over, if you don't have one, still come on over - there are plenty of local landscapers to assist you!
