Attention Bungalow Lovers--We've got a total gem--Oversized corner Lot, 32'X125' Checkerboard brick exterior with sweeping side entry, beautiful bead-board soffits, exquisite patina on the full copper gutter system. This side entry, large footprint bungalow on a southwest corner in Portage Park is ready for your historic preservation or modernization. Lovingly cared for by the same family for 50+ years, this bungalow has all the original leaded + stained glass matched casement and transom windows throughout the first floor. Two large bayed bedrooms on the first floor, an original construction rear informal dinette off the back of the kitchen and a 3rd large bedroom on the first floor in addition to a bayed formal dining room and large pentagonal bay front living room. The plaster work in this home is incredible with multiple courses of crown molding details and picture rail. All the wood trim is original and unpainted. **ORIGINAL first floor bathroom with pink and white basketweave floor and OG subway tile--Kitchen has the original subway tile with the most amazing trim pieces. Walk-in Pantry off the kitchen, original ironing board cabinet has been converted to a spice rack. Second floor was expanded decades ago to have two very large bedrooms w/ built in bed nooks, good sized closets (rare in a second floor bungalow bedroom) and multiple exposures. Full Bath upstairs and laundry chute from the top floor to the basement. The basement was finished way back when with a large rec/family room with a wet bar and a nice built-in bookshelf/wall-unit, plenty of space to add even more bedrooms, a relatively modern (last 10-15 years) 3rd full bath in the basement and an extensive laundry/summer kitchen/workshop round out the basement. Two car brick garage completes the property. This is such a stunner of an opportunity. In the Portage Park Elementary District, just a three block walk south to Portage Park, dog park, and amazing aquatic center, easy access to 90/94, Metra, Blue Line stop at Montrose...The floor plan is expansive with nearly 3500 sqft of usable space and the brick is solid all around.
