You have to see this one to believe it! Offering the preserved charm, character and bones of a traditional older home...but updated to provide you with modern efficiencies and features...this one is sure to please! There isn't much that hasn't been completely redone the past 1-2 years in this stunning 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offering 2300 square feet of finished living space and an oversized 2 car detached heated garage. You will fall in love with the sweeping front porch, charming foyer entrance, original detailed woodwork & trim, french doors, bay windows, bay window seat built in to the staircase, lead glass windows and much, much more. As you enter the foyer, the living room offers hardwood floors and a beautiful set of french doors that open to the front porch! Another set of french doors connect the living & dining room which has a lovely bay window and hardwood floor. The brand new kitchen is exquisite and includes new Whirlpool range, dishwasher & microwave, custom cabinetry, granite counter, trendy tile flooring, built-in pantry unit, and a step-down to the spacious family room featuring new carpet and doors to the awesome paver patio featuring old brick pavers and fenced yard. A generous sized laundry room (equipped for an electric dryer) and 1/2 bath with linen closet complete the main floor. The intricate, detailed staircase takes you up to the 2nd level that is just as impressive as the main level! Utilize the 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths for your needs! Two bedrooms share a luxurious Jack & Jill bath with pocket doors on each side. One of these bedrooms has a connecting 7x8 space (great for work-from-home, playroom, or doing homework!) and a large 5x6 walk-in closet with hardwood floor. The other has an 8x8 room attached that would make a great closet/dressing room space and leads to the Jack & Jill bath. The other two bedrooms are spacious, one featuring a regular sized closet and the other featuring an 11x5 walk-in closet. These bedrooms could easily share the 2nd full bath on this level. There is a new set of stairs that takes you up to the walk-up attic! Imagine the possibilities! The full, unfinished basement is easily accessible off the laundry room. The oversized 2-car garage has fresh drywall, new roof, new wall-mounted heater and also has a gorgeous brick paver driveway off the alley. The yard was recently fenced allowing you all the privacy you desire. Did I mention that this home is located in a desirable historical neighborhood with beautiful mature trees, on a rare historic brick paver street, close to downtown, and less than 2 blocks from Huntley Park? Updates within the past 2 years include roof (family room, front porch & garage), gutters, siding, most of the windows, 220 amp electrical, high-efficiency water heater, plumbing, HVAC (2 units, zoned - basement unit is gas and attic unit is electric), central air, kitchen, baths, carpet, bathroom & kitchen flooring, light fixtures, Ring doorbell, stairs to full basement, stairs to attic, and fence around the back yard. You will see that a lot of careful thought and consideration went into restoring this 100+ year old home to make it feel like new again. What are you waiting for! This could be your dream home!

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.
