Gracious, spacious, sunlit Oak Park beauty on a double-wide lot beckons! Arrive onto the inviting, large front porch, and be welcomed into the spacious foyer where you'll start to appreciate the home's beautiful woodwork, hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and historic details, including the lovely stained glass pieces and period ornamental fireplace. Gather with your loved ones in the bright living room boasting a bay window with plenty of space for multiple conversation areas. The adjacent formal dining room has a sunny southern exposure, gorgeous built-in, more stained glass, and can easily host all your parties and holiday gatherings! And cooking your gourmet meals or everyday snacks is a delight in the spacious kitchen with the large eat-at island, miles of granite countertops, all stainless appliances, and loads of bright, white cabinetry, including a huge wall of pantry cabinets. A generous, handy mudroom off the kitchen and a perfect half bath round out this level, making for easy living and entertaining. When you're ready to retire, head up the ornate staircase to find four sizable bedrooms. The massive primary bedroom has a huge walk-in closet (it abuts the hall bath, making it easy to add a primary bath down the road!) , and the two other bedrooms on this floor are large and bright with excellent closet space. The fresh, updated family bath features marble tile, a deep soaker tub, loads of storage space and completes this level. The recently refinished third-floor bedroom is the perfect oasis for teens or a bonus work or play space! The high, dry, bright, lower level offers even more room to roam with a huge family room and a bedroom that could be the perfect office, guest, or workout space, especially with this level's full, spa-like bath with a walk-in steam shower. Mechanicals and a spacious laundry/storage area round out this level. Al-fresco living and entertaining is a dream in this extra-wide yard with plenty of space to play or host BBQs. It boasts two patios (one covered!) , a two-car garage, plus additional parking space! All these incredible features in a well-maintained home that features a ton of updates - attic remodel (2022 - chimney stack removed, attic finished with insulation and heat/air provided to the space), furnace (2022), water heater (2022), air conditioner (2022), roof (2022), and more. Fantastic location - a minute from the Avenue shopping and dining district boasting restaurants, grocery, coffee shops, and more, close to award-winning schools, parks, grocery, coffee shops, public transit, and all that Oak Park has to offer! This move-in-ready home is the one you've been waiting for - all you have to do is unpack, settle in, and get ready to enjoy Spring. Welcome home!
