Description
Welcome home to this charming bungalow where vintage character meets modern updates. Located on a beautifully landscaped and well maintained over sized lot on an ideal residential street, this home has been meticulously kept. Featuring hardwood floors throughout the main living level, coffered ceilings in the dining room, original built in woodwork, doors, and even stained glass windows. The front sunroom is a perfect playroom, yoga room, office or den. The spacious living room has built-in cabinetry and decorative fireplace. The bathroom has a clawfoot soaking tub, pedestal sink, and built-in linen/ vanity cabinet. This vintage floor plan provides space to spread out with the formal dining room, kitchen, and large walk-in pantry in the back of the home. The kitchen just had a facelift with brand new quartz countertops and freshly painted cabinets giving it a bright, current feel. Off the kitchen is the new composite deck and manicured oversized lot. The yard is a lush retreat and gardeners dream with plenty of space for an urban garden, play equipment, gazebo, you name it. Exterior updates include new windows + trim paint, new deck, railings, planters, and back fence with gate all within the last 2-3 years ago. The home also has new duct work and a high efficiency furnace added 2 years ago, and new AC this year! Room to grow in this home with a large full attic ready for your finishing plans as well as a full basement (with bedroom/ office already added). Brand new hot water heater was just replaced a week ago! Parking pad for three cars located behind the back fence has plenty of space to add a garage. Idyllic neighborhood with frequent block parties, tree lined streets, and sense of community. Location makes getting around town easy with the Jefferson Park Blue Line, Metra, busses, and I-90 all just a couple blocks away. A true charmer.
