Description

Embrace a warm, charming life filled with history, creativity and abundant light in the home well known as the poets cottage. Wrap around windows bring light in and provide views of the sweeping fenced in yard, complete with garden boxes and a patio for late night bonfires. Inside of the garage you will find a work bench space, room for 2 cars, and a special built-in office with heat and AC. The cottage's layout brings you a mudroom/laundry right off of the 2 car garage. The kitchen is open floor plan to the family room. The home's 3 bedrooms are all of great size, and the attic provides you with a ton of storage space, or the possibility to fully finish it. The poets cottage is ideally located just 2 blocks away from both Washington School and Robert Crown Community Center, plus you are a quick walk to the Main St. Metra purple line. Showings of this charismatic cottage will begin this weekend!
