Description
Welcome home to this bright, charming single family home steps from Independence Park and a block away from Murphy Elementary! This home was completely gutted in 2011 and the current owners have done extensive work to create more livable space in the lower level, water proofed the home with drain tile/sump pump, installed new HVAC/oversized water heater, built a creative multi-purpose garage as well as other miscellaneous updates throughout. As soon as you walk into this home you are greeted with a living room complete with coat closet, a wood burning fireplace with beautiful mantel and marble surround, oversized windows for light lovers, built-in speakers and view of the beautifully crafted staircase. Just past the main level 3rd bedroom/office and full bath(indulge in body sprays and a rain-shower head) is the kitchen which features Shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, SS appliances and open floor concept into the spacious dining/family room combo great for entertaining and everyday living. The second floor has two good sized bedrooms with jack and Jill spa like bathroom with deep soaker top and plenty of counter space. Primary bedroom has a great custom organized walk-in closet. Lower level has good ceiling height and was completely waterproofed and carpeted to add usable square footage into the home. Waterline was added for a future wetbar. The newer 2.5 car garage with additional storage was designed with an offset gable to create a second story no-crouch height studio space with easy pull down stair access. Did I also mention the current owners added a 220 electrical line in the garage to make it EV ready? Other features included low/no maintenance Hardieboard siding, crawl space under the front of the house for storage, a spacious back deck that flows into the oversized yard complete with Magnolia Tree and thoughtful perennial landscaping. All of this and more in highly coveted Irving Park and Murphy School district. The heavy lifting is done:All you have to do is move your furniture in!
