Description
The One Everyone Will Want-Turnkey Beauty in East Highland Park, Fully Updated and Full of Light! Set on a picturesque block in East Highland Park with private backyard access to the Green Bay Trail, this gorgeous home has been thoughtfully updated while preserving all the warmth and character everyone craves. From the polished curb appeal to the refinished hardwood floors (March 2025) and sun-filled rooms throughout, every inch has been meticulously maintained and elevated with intention. Step into the spacious living room where a classic wood-burning fireplace sets the tone, then flow into the formal dining room and reimagined kitchen-complete with brand new cabinetry, countertops, a Viking stove, Brizo brushed nickel faucet, subway tile backsplash, and a new dishwasher (April 2025). The adjacent family room offers a relaxed setting overlooking the backyard, while a full bathroom on the main level adds convenience and flexibility for everyday living or guests. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are generously sized and filled with natural light. The gut-renovated bathroom (2024) is a true standout-featuring high-end fixtures from Studio 41, polished nickel Phylrich hardware, a Kohler soaking tub, mirror, shower screen, dual Kohler showerheads, a sleek new vanity, and a Toto toilet. Major upgrades include: dual HVAC systems (2016), water heater (2023), full exterior paint (2022), new roof and gutters (2022, with added aesthetic enhancements), and a new washing machine (2025). The oversized fenced-in yard, detached two-car garage, and direct trail access complete the package. This is a rare find-beautifully updated, effortlessly livable, and perfectly located.
