Great North Shore Secret was our code name for this secluded and little known classical late nineteenth century Evanston stone residence, of over ten thousand square feet with roundabout driveway in front. Leader Builders' project involved renovation of the house's historical finishes and a general face lift without any major changes to its layout. Original trim and finishes were restored; the walls, ceiling and trim were repainted and the floors refinished. On the outside, small repairs of existing roofing, gutters and flashing system was a tune up of sorts to get this ultimate living machine ready for yet another century of running.
