Description

Recognized as an "Expanded Chicago Bungalow" and painted by nationally recognized artist Leisa Collins, this wonderful Park Ridge home is not only a back yard gardener's paradise, but offers the work / home versatility that today's family needs. You will feel a warmth when you open the door to the living room. It is accented with a fireplace and opens to the dining room and then to a family room off of the back of the house. The kitchen offers ample counter space, cabinets, storage and a pantry and around the corner is the den that looks out to the back deck and expansive back yard. One bedroom is on the main floor accompanied by a full bath (jacuzzi tub) and large pantry (currently being used as an office). Upstairs there is a primary bedroom and en-suite bath as well as a second bedroom and another full bath and tub. The basement features a recreation room, office (or bedroom), exercise room, laundry, an abundance of storage, exterior access to the back yard and a cemented crawl (more storage). Out back, enjoy the energy-efficient 6 person hot tub, large deck, raised vegetable gardens, three storage sheds and a fully fenced yard large - enough for any type of socially distant gathering. Refrigerator / DW (2020), Park's Flood Control (2015), perimeter drain tile system with two sump pumps - both with Trusty Warns battery back-up, roof (2016) and ceiling fans throughout. Parking for two exterior spaces in the driveport. Walk-able to Park Ridge and Edison Park Metra and restaurants, Whole Foods, Starbucks, schools, daycare and more!
