Description
Welcome to this charming Cape Cod-style home nestled on a quiet tree-lined street in North Mayfair, a historic and welcoming enclave within the Albany Park community on Chicago's Far North Side. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated over the years, this move-in ready residence offers four bright, generously sized bedrooms-two on the main level and two upstairs-along with two full bathrooms and two full kitchens for maximum flexibility. The main floor features a spacious living room with hardwood floors throughout, two bedrooms, a full bath, and a nicely sized kitchen with plenty of cabinet space and a small enclosed entry porch off the side entrance for extra storage or a convenient drop zone. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms with fresh paint and great natural light. The fully finished basement, also freshly painted, includes a large family room, a second full kitchen, a full bathroom, dedicated laundry and utility rooms, and exterior access-perfect for a large family, in-law arrangements, extended guests, or potential rental income through Airbnb or long-term leasing. Outside, enjoy a private fenced backyard and a detached two-car garage with an extended covered patio area ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Located just steps from North Mayfair Playlot Park, Gompers Park with its pool, playgrounds, sports courts, and scenic trails connecting to LaBagh Woods and Forest Glen Woods, and close to Palmer Elementary, Taft High School, shopping, dining, public transit, and expressways, this well-maintained home combines classic charm, generous space, and modern convenience in one of Chicago's most desirable neighborhoods.
