The Chicago Cubs’ top sales and marketing executive and his wife, a tech industry CEO, bought a newly built house in Wilmette and have placed their previous home in the same town on the market.
Colin and Jaime Faulkner paid $2.25 million for the seven-bedroom, 7,100-square-foot on about a quarter-acre on Greenleaf Avenue in September, according to the Cook County Recorder of Deeds.
Colin Faulkner, who’s been with the Cubs organization since 2010, is its sales and marketing senior vice president. Jaime Faulkner is the CEO of E15, an analytics subsidiary of the Levy restaurant firm. Colin Faulkner did not respond to Crain’s multiple requests for comment.
Completed in 2018, the house sold in June of that year for just less than $2 million to a couple who twelve months later put it on the market at $2.25 million. It went under contract to the Faulkners a week later.
The home has a modern farmhouse-style exterior, with board-and-batten siding and a front porch with a metal roof. Photos with the listing show a mostly white interior, with pocket doors, a long kitchen island with a thick marble top, and wood beams in the peak-roofed master bedroom.
The Faulkners bought their previous home, about half a mile away on Crescent Place, in 2015 for $1.77 million, according to the recorder. That five-bedroom home, on about one-sixth of an acre, has been on the market since July at just under $1.8 million. That house, too, was newly built when the Faulkners bought it. Its square footage is not specified in the listing.
At their new home, the couple live a few blocks from the town’s lakefront Gillson Park and beach, and from the Linden Street station on the Purple Line, which connects with the Red Line for a straight shot to Wrigley Field.
Also within a few blocks are the homes of three members of the family that owns the Chicago Cubs.
Tom Ricketts built a house just north of Gillson Park on a lakefront site that he bought for $7 million. Laura Ricketts built south of the park on a Sheridan Road site she bought for $6.5 million. Todd Ricketts lives in a home he built on two lots on Laurel Avenue, purchased separately for a total of almost $2.4 million, although the cost of construction is not in county records. In July, the Chicago Tribune reported that Ricketts and his wife, Sylvie Legere, were paying property taxes at the level assessed for the prior, now-demolished house, not the higher level that the new house, twice the size of the old one, should be assessed.
