Description

Fabulous opportunity for a 3 bed, 1.5 bathroom on an oversized lot. Incredible curb appeal, located at the end of a quiet brick paved and tree lined cul-de-sac with no traffic. Hardwood floors on first floor and massive windows on the south, east, and west means tons of natural light throughout the day. Very open first floor creates flow from foyer to front living room and formal dining space. 1st floor full bath renovated in 2024 with custom extra long jacuzzi tub. Plumbing roughed in to add another...Fabulous opportunity for a 3 bed, 1.5 bathroom on an oversized lot. Incredible curb appeal, located at the end of a quiet brick paved and tree lined cul-de-sac with no traffic. Hardwood floors on first floor and massive windows on the south, east, and west means tons of natural light throughout the day. Very open first floor creates flow from foyer to front living room and formal dining space. 1st floor full bath renovated in 2024 with custom extra long jacuzzi tub. Plumbing roughed in to add another full bathroom on the 2nd floor at the same time. 2nd floor ceilings are tall enough to add the bathroom without needing to add a dormer. Enclosed front porch is perfect for morning coffee, or step out the sliding glass doors of the kitchen onto the back porch. Recently partially updated kitchen with dine- in area and a large pantry. Back yard garden has tomatoes and a gorgeous rose bush, with the back deck shaded by a massive oak tree. 2nd Floor is 2 bedrooms with closets and a center room with enough space to add a full bathroom, with a ceiling height that allows for even the very tall to stand upright. Basement is partially finished (formerly used as an additional bedroom) and has a half bathroom off the work/project room located adjacent to the laundry room. Tons of storage space on every level in closets, in the basement, and on the 2nd floor. A convenient front driveway as well as a 2 car garage with wide door to alley and a single car size party door that opens into the back yard. All the parking options means protection from the elements and the ability to host plenty of guests and enjoy the spacious back deck and back yard. Walkable to local schools, shops and the historic district of Oak Park. ASSUMABLE FHA MORTGAGE at 2.8!
