Description

Homes like this don't come along often. Lovingly cared for by the same family for nearly 50 years, this classic Jefferson Park bungalow sits on a 30-foot-wide lot on one of the neighborhood's most desirable residential streets. Rich with character, pride of ownership, and endless potential, this is a rare opportunity to create your dream home while appreciating the exceptional care it has received over the decades. The inviting main level offers a light-filled living room surrounded by windows, a separate formal dining room, two spacious bedrooms, a full bath, and an eat-in kitchen ready for your personal vision. Upstairs, a thoughtful dormer addition creates a true primary retreat featuring a large bedroom, full bath, and a separate sitting area that could serve as a home office, nursery, reading nook, or more. The lower level is the home's hidden treasure. Preserved with the warmth and charm of an Upper North Woods lodge, the expansive recreation room showcases rich wood finishes, a built-in bar, and abundant space for entertaining, relaxing, or creating lifelong memories. A large laundry room, storage, and workshop offer additional flexibility. While the home presents an outstanding opportunity for cosmetic updates, it has been impeccably maintained and cherished throughout its ownership, providing an incredible foundation for its next chapter. Outside, enjoy spacious front and back yards, an oversized one-car garage, and an additional parking pad. Tucked into one of the community's most desirable pockets, you'll enjoy the perfect balance of peaceful residential living while remaining just minutes from parks, forest preserves, neighborhood favorites, shopping, and the exceptional transportation options that have made Jefferson Park one of Chicago's most sought-after Northwest Side neighborhoods.
