Description
Step into this delightful Tudor house where sunlight floods the home, casting a warm glow on the newly (2021) refinished hardwood floors. Nestled in the charming NW Oak Park, this 1936 home effortlessly blends modern updates with timeless allure - gorgeous 1930s architecture meets a fresh/modern feel. From the inviting entryway to the living room built-in bookshelves and crisp white trim, every corner exudes a whimsical charm. The dining room, with its beautiful French doors, sets the stage for memorable dinner parties, while the light-filled kitchen, featuring gleaming white cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, invites aspiring chefs to create masterful meals - it's perfect for entertaining. Adjoining the open kitchen (newly renovated in 2021) is a cozy family room with a gas fireplace that overlooks the lovely greenery in the backyard - lots of room for entertaining! The bonus room adjacent to the bright family room now serves as a dedicated office but can easily convert to a playroom, mudroom, or library. The second floor, where three spacious bedrooms and 2-full baths await, with warming heated floors in the primary ensuite, includes a newly renovated primary suite closet, loads more sunlight, and ample space to spread out -- with even more storage in the pull-down attic space. Venture downstairs to the finished basement, where a large and well-lit family room, laundry facilities, potential guest quarters, office space, and even a Peleton nook await. Tons of storage and extra room to roam. Outside, a sprawling backyard, deck, and patio offer endless opportunities for al fresco gatherings and relaxation. Complete with a 2.5-car brick garage and patio pavers make for a roomy & beautiful entertaining space. It has a fantastic yard with a basketball court and a kids' playground. Great for commuters, it offers easy access to the city via 290 and public transportation while being within walking distance of schools, parks (and its award-winning park district), and restaurants along North Ave. Downtown Oak Park with its movie theater, fabulous farmer's market, boutiques, coffee shops, and restaurants is a short distance. Too many improvements to list - full description in attached PDF "List of Improvements". This house is special - Nothing to do but move in. Welcome home!
