We bought a house!
We moved to Wilmette last year around this time so we could start looking for a house in the North Shore and we finally found it!
They accepted our offer on Tuesday so pending the inspection/appraisal and closing the mortgage we will be moving in June. It’s a wooded paradise in the Village of Glenview in the Wilmette/New Trier School District. Our future kids will be going to middle school next to where my Nonny and Poppy lived and the playground my parents and grandparents brought us to every Sunday while growing up. I will be thrilled to send our kids to the best schools in the country.
It’s across the street from the North Branch trail and backs up to a semi private park! I’m already having visions of our first BBQ and planning a Labor Day/Housewarming party.
Life is good!
It looks awesome, super exciting! Love the back to nature look of the “wooded paradise”. I did not realize Glenview was so rural. Congrats!

Thanks, Pete! We’re really excited.
Congratulations!!! I love homes with lots of trees! Maybe it’s because I’m a ginger – I appreciate the shade 🙂

I love the trees, Maggie and it’s probably because I’m a ginger too! 🙂
Ooo! Awesome! And what a fantastic area!
