Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

A rare opportunity on one of Winnetka's most beloved neighborhood streets. Welcome to 790 Foxdale Avenue, a charming Dutch Colonial offering timeless character, a wonderful sense of community and an exceptional location in the sought-after Greeley Elementary attendance area and New Trier High School district. Foxdale is more than just a beautiful tree-lined street-it's the kind of block where neighbors know one another, kids are often outside playing and spontaneous conversations happen at the end of the driveway. Longtime neighborhood traditions have included Flamingo Fridays, block parties and even a "Foxdale Float" in Winnetka's Fourth of July Parade. It's vibrant, welcoming and the kind of street that inspires people to say, "Foxdale-that's a fun block." This well taken care of home offers classic curb appeal with durable, low-maintenance composite siding and a newly fenced backyard. Step inside to hardwood floors, original architectural details and a surprisingly generous entry coat closet. The spacious living room features a marble fireplace with flanking built-ins, while the formal dining room flows into the kitchen with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and a charming breakfast nook overlooking the backyard-a perfect spot for morning coffee, casual meals or homework. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a full bath and a versatile bonus room adjoining one of the bedrooms. Currently used as a home office, this flexible space could also make a wonderful playroom, sitting room, nursery or creative retreat. The finished lower level provides additional recreation space, laundry and a workshop, while a playful hidden wine nook tucked along the stairway adds an unexpected bit of character. Outside, the private newly fenced backyard features a brick paver patio and built-in fire pit, creating an inviting setting for dining, entertaining and play. A two-car garage completes the property. Beautifully maintained and inviting as it stands, the home is also an ideal canvas for a buyer to add their own finishing touches and thoughtful cosmetic updates over time. Ideally located near downtown Winnetka, Hubbard Woods, Metra, the Green Bay Trail, parks, beaches and everything the village has to offer, 790 Foxdale presents an increasingly rare opportunity to enjoy a classic Winnetka home on a street known as much for its community as its location. Select images have been AI-rendered to help illustrate the home's amazing potential with cosmetic enhancements and are intended for visualization purposes only. Buyers and agents to verify all finishes and dimensions in person.
