On the market for nearly a year, we can't let another day go by without spotlighting one of the most historic homes in Evanston. Famed architect Dwight H. Perkins, who put in a five-year stint with Burnham & Root, designed the striking Prairie Style home for his family. It's flanked by a half-acre of wooded bliss, composed by landscape architect Jens Jensen. And what would a Jensen design be without a pond? Inside, the usual hallmarks of Prairie Style are in place. The mural, wooden fireplace, and moldings are all original. There's also a second-floor solarium with built-in seating. The 6/3.5 home incorporates three fireplaces, leaded glass, library, game room, full basement, and a balcony in its 4,100 square feet. Listed as high as $1.6M, you can now call it home for $1.4M.
