Description
Architecturally significant Mid-Century Modern single-level home on a secluded, wooded 1.08-acre lot in desirable Palos Park, Illinois - just approximately 35 minutes from downtown Chicago. This distinctive mid-1950s residence, designed by architect John Townsend Jr. (long time Chicago architect, trained in the International Style made famous by Mies van der Rohe), offers approximately 2,700 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Since 2022 the home has been meticulously refreshed with premium, high-quality updates designed for modern comfort and efficiency. Highlights include a new commercial-grade TPO roof (complete tear-off), a new commercial-grade tankless water heater, and a stunning new kitchen featuring premium white quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, elegant terrazzo tile and maple flooring, a professional Wolf stovetop, top-of-the-line Bosch dishwasher, and a new refrigerator. Additional upgrades include a complete interior refresh with new drywall, fresh contemporary paint, and sophisticated architectural LED lighting fixtures. The main living areas connect seamlessly to a hardwired home automation system. The home also features commercial-grade Speed Queen washer and dryer, new Rheem furnaces for reliable and efficient heating, and a completely refinished 2-car attached garage with durable epoxy flooring, high-end lighting, drywall, and crisp paint. The mature wooded lot delivers exceptional privacy and a serene, nature-immersed setting with towering trees. While the property's natural drainage and landscaping offer opportunities for personalization, the new owner will enjoy tailoring the expansive outdoor spaces to their vision. This rare combination of timeless architectural pedigree, thoughtful modern updates, and a generous private wooded lot creates a standout opportunity in Palos Park.
