Description
This spacious bungalow has been well maintained, preserving many of the home's wonderful original details. The exterior is highlighted by a lovely bay window and handsome blond and taupe face bricks. There is beautiful, unpainted woodwork throughout the main living spaces, generous room sizes, and storage for everything. The home opens to the foyer and original mirrored closet-door and woodwork, leading into the bright sizeable living room. The living room features an impressive decorative fireplace and mantle, more exceptional woodwork and enters to the dining room, boasting even more original details and space for entertaining. The second floor features a full bath and three large bedrooms, to compliment the two on the main floor and additional bedroom in the basement. There is a full bathroom on every floor, over 2,000 square feet of above grade space and a variety of upgrades including a new water heater and repairs to the main stack this year, tear-off roof in 2023, boiler in 2017, garage door and opener in 2018, new laminate flooring in kitchen, hallway and bedroom in 2023, etc. The front yard is smartly landscaped and the back is ready for play, gardening, or both. The basement features a second kitchen and a recreation or family room, laundry, and even more storage. The garage has enough room for your car, your mower, and plenty more. Located in the highly walkable and desirable South Edgebrook neighborhood within walking distance to the forest preserve, parks, schools, shopping, and public transportation. The home has been priced presuming the updates many buyers would want to do. This is the dream; a well-maintained home with plenty of original details revealed, lots of updates on the guts and big ticket items, and priced so the next owner(s) can afford the variety of ways to make this place their own. While it has been well-maintained and updated as described, this is an estate sale and is being sold As-Is.
