Description
STUNNING VICTORIAN WITH STYLE, SPACE AND PRIME LOCATION _READY FOR YOU TO MOVE IN! Updates include: A stunning kitchen remodel (2023), freshly painted interior in Sherwin Williams Calm palette, new 3/4 inch prefinished solid wood oak flooring throughout (2021), new SPACEPAK A/C (2021), new boiler (2018), new hot water storage tank (2019), sump pump (2018), new Hardie Plank Siding, windows, and doors (2016), and new roof (2015). This gorgeous 2-story Victorian blends timeless charm, thoughtful modern updates, and designer finishes. A welcoming front porch sets the scene and leads inside to a spacious foyer with custom built-in coat organizer - the perfect mix of function and character to keep everyday essentials tucked neatly away. The living room makes a statement with a stylish gas fireplace flanked by built-in bookshelves that bring both warmth and personality to the space. This inviting room is equally suited for cozy night in or lively gatherings with friends. From there, the home flows into the dining room, where large windows fill the space in natural light and frame the perfect backdrop for memorable meals. A custom serving bar adds a dash of charm and functionality, creating an effortless transition between casual weeknight dinners and holiday hosting. The farmhouse-chic kitchen is a true showstopper, designed with both beauty and practicality in mind. Crisp quartz counters, a classic subway tile backsplash, elegant cabinets with island with breakfast bar seating and a cozy breakfast nook make the space both social and functional. Exterior access to the backyard makes indoor-to-outdoor entertaining seamless-ideal for summer BBQs out on the deck or patio. Back inside, the main level full bath impresses, featuring a sleek subway tile shower equipped with a handheld spray and multiple body sprayers - designed to refresh and recharge. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers a quiet escape with dual walk-in closets that make staying organized a breeze. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests, or office space -each offering ample closet storage. A second full bath with a convenient laundry closet (a true time-saver!) completes this level. A full unfinished basement with exterior access is a blank canvas, ready to transform into a rec room, workout studio, or workshop - while still providing plenty of storage space. A 3-car detached garage with 60 - amp service and alley access rounds out this incredible home. Situated on an urban lot just 3 blocks from a new school and minutes to downtown, train, Northwestern University and Lake Michigan, this location checks all the boxes.
