Description
Perfectly located on the 900 block of N Linden. Steps from Mann Elementary, Field and Lindberg Parks, and a ten-minute walk to Oak Park River Forest High School. This classic yet comfortable gem sits on an unusually wide footprint with approximately 20 feet of space on either side- providing exceptional privacy and abundant natural light. A lovely covered front porch with a swing, composite flooring, and an original oak glass-paneled door create a warm and inviting entry. Inside you'll find hardwood floors throughout and an interior freshly painted in April 2026. Across the living room, dining room and foyer are 9-foot ceilings with original crown and picture rail molding. The living room features original architectural elements including columns, built-in bookcases, stained glass windows, mantel and French doors leading to the formal dining room. The dining room is generously-sized and highlighted by large windows and a chandelier. The updated kitchen (2021) features soft-close cabinetry and a roll-out window above the sink. An adjacent eat-in area has 6 windows overlooking the backyard. Upstairs, the light-filled primary suite offers an attached dressing room/study with new Berber carpet, double closet and a vaulted ceiling. The primary bath features a whirlpool tub, new comfort-height toilet and new flooring. A second full bath preserves its vintage charm with original tub (re-glazed), tile and towel bars. The wide and bright front bedroom has three large windows and a walk-in closet (with window). A charming middle bedroom featuring a custom Beatrix Potter mural by a local artist has a window seat and built-in storage. The lower level includes a fully-remodeled (2021) bedroom suite (easily used as a family room/play room) with a sizable closet, vented glass block windows and a 3/4 bath. Attached a versatile laundry room/kitchenette includes a walk-out to the backyard, washer/dryer, kitchen appliances, extensive cabinetry, a walk-in storage closet and 3 vented glass block windows. Major systems include a boiler and hot water heater (2013) as well as dual-zone air conditioning with a new first-floor unit in 2025. The fully-fenced backyard with six foot privacy fence and 3 gates provides ample space for recreation, gardening, or future expansion, complemented by a brick patio and three south-facing garden boxes. A two-car garage with a newer door and opener plus additional alley parking space completes this delightful home.
