A
stunning English manor-style house in Chicago's North Shore is set to hit the market in February for $11 million. The property, located at 140 Sheridan Road in Winnetka, was meticulously restored by Greta Cacciatore, an expert in European architectural design, over a period of 17 months. Built in 1928 and designed by British architect Ernest Mayo, the Tudor Revival home features original elements such as pointed arches, tall window bays, and triple-brick exterior walls, alongside modern touches to enhance functionality.
The residence boasts an expansive living room with a ceiling height exceeding 20 feet, as well as a redesigned kitchen, sunroom, and custom oak flooring. The property sits on over an acre of land, including a buildable 4,000-square-foot lot for future development. The landscaping was also updated to restore the English garden aesthetic.
Winnetka has seen a surge in multimillion-dollar home sales, with 99 transactions exceeding $4 million last year and several high-end deals already closed this month. Notably, the "Home Alone" house sold for $5.5 million, while a newly built six-bedroom home on Westmoor Trail sold for just over $4.67 million.
