Description
Rarely do opportunities to acquire a meticulously rehabbed brick Colonial on the North Shore come along with their own income producing AirBNB / in-law suite attached! This 4 Bedroom/ 2.5 Bath is oozing with vintage charm. This substantial home sits prominently on a corner plot in the heart of the eclectic Ravinia neighborhood. Walk to Metra, top schools and Ravinia dining district! Moments from Glencoe Village, downtown Highland Park and highway! Enter new 'Craftsman' style front door into gracious wood paneled hall and marvel at original solid wood flooring that continues throughout. Freshly painted in crisp white, double doors in the living room lead to a darling sunroom that could easily function as a 'work from home' space. Living room features refurbished fireplace with custom marble tile. The dining room benefits from refinished French doors to one of TWO separate fenced yards afforded by this rare corner lot - an ideal setup for those with pets! An entertainer's delight - the premium kitchen is semi-open plan to the dining space. Quality stainless steel appliances, solid surface countertops, new subway tiling and newly refinished cabinetry complete this elegant space. The main level additionally benefits from a beautifully refinished powder room with custom hexagonal tile floor. Upstairs off the spacious landing are three generous bedrooms and newly refurbished master bathroom with double vanity, extra wide walk-in shower, underfloor heating and luxurious soaking tub. Access to bathroom from hall AND master bedroom! The unfinished attic is spacious with 'dormer' in place for those seeking to expand upwards in the future. Enjoy the newly finished lower level without worry - it has been professionally dry-proofed by US Waterproofing and warranty will be passed to new owner! Newly drywalled, carpeted, with a refinished bathroom, this flexible space is currently set up as a successful 'Ravinia' themed AirBNB / VRBO with separate entrance to street level! Why not use this self contained space to offset your mortgage? 'The Annex' can be purchased as an operational business down to the bedding and silverware. The lower level would also make an ideal teenager / in-law suite or home theater room. The possibilities are endless! Downstairs, you will also find a dedicated laundry room with high capacity Whirlpool washer and dryer and original 'laundry shoot' to main and upper levels! Technology lovers will be thrilled with the addition of Ring Video doorbell system, Yale keyless entry and rear security camera! These modern amenities blend seamlessly with vintage details - marble fireplace, cast iron radiators, solid wood doors and art decor style hardware. Outdoor enthusiasts will be delighted by the freshly landscaped grounds, new wooden fences, new concrete patio, new Pella windows and new (2017) roof! Although there is currently no garage, there is plenty of scope for a single detached here! Parking will be breeze as a brand new CONCRETE driveway large enough for 4 cars will be laid! *City of Highland Park to complete landscaping, tree planting and turfing of parkway on Blackstone Place Fall 2021* *New CONCRETE driveway and patio to be completed October 2021* Too many "news" to list - see additional documents in Agent notes. For those looking for a rehabbed home with income potential or additional living space, you've found it here in beautiful Ravinia! Agent owned.
