Description
Renovated farmhouse in the historic Lords Park neighborhood. Well maintained three bedrooms, two baths. Gutted to the studs in 2012 - new electrical, plumbing, HVAC system, windows, vinyl/cedar siding, roof, flooring, fixtures. Big beautiful windows throughout with custom Bali shades/blinds, and skylight in the upstairs hall - lots of natural sunlight! Spacious updated kitchen with white river granite counters, ceramic floor, large island, cherry cabinets, stainless steel appliances (refrigerator and range less than one-year-old), and glass mosaic tile backsplash. Formal dining room with original french doors and tray ceilings. Master bedroom with adjoining master bath. Back two bedrooms have access to balcony/deck, to enjoy your coffee in the morning and wine at night. Pottery Barn light fixtures throughout the house. Lots of storage and closet space. Two-car garage off of the alley. Lot is wider than normal, creating a nice side yard, centered with a majestic oak. Beautiful Lords Park is just two blocks away. Convenient access to I-90 and Rte 20. Walk to Metra, Fox River trail and downtown amenities.
