The approach to 674 Prospect anticipates the elegance and impeccable craftsmanship that awaits in this Tudor Revival neoclassic residence. Located in sought after East Winnetka on a prestigious street where large homes have generous setbacks that offer a buffer from the hustle bustle. There is a walking path across the street that leads to Sheridan Road and Maple Street Park/Beach...the lake is that close! With over 10,000 sf under roof, every square inch has been designed for the perfect use. The gracious foyer centers the home; the custom millwork staircase hugs the wall to allow the eye to go deep into the residence and then outside. Detailed millwork defines each transition from room to room. Windows & doors are strategically placed to enhance the visual appeal of the exterior light/landscapes. The residence is flooded with light from morning sun from the east and setting sun to the west. The floor plan is genius in the way that traffic patterns never overlap.

The seasonally planted garden is tucked behind the pergola. Tall trees and lush landscape provide privacy & quiet enjoyment.
