Experience the charm of living in a wonderful neighborhood, just 1.5 blocks from the Metra and Keystone Park, and 2.5 blocks from Washington Park. Step through the new front door and be greeted by stunning architectural details, including beautiful hardwood floors, archways, and a striking curved staircase that leads to the second floor. The expansive living room, featuring a wood-burning fireplace, beamed ceiling, and built-in shelves, opens into a sun-soaked sunroom. Host gatherings in the elegant dining room with its cross-beamed ceiling. The spacious kitchen offers great potential, including newer stainless steel appliances (added in '19). The primary bedroom is generously sized, making it a perfect candidate for a future en-suite and walk-in closet. The lower level, updated recently, includes a cozy family room with carpeting, built-ins, a modern full bath, a large laundry room, a versatile bonus space (ideal for an office or playroom), three storage areas, and a full perimeter drain tile system. Enjoy outdoor living in the fully fenced-in backyard, with mature trees for shade, perennial plants for color, and a patio perfect for lounging. Don't miss this hidden gem!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
