Property Description
Welcome to your charming Jefferson Park home! There are 3 entrances to the home; the front, the side and the back.This allows for a easy In-law suite situation. Let's head up the steps to the front entrance. Leave your shoes and coats in the entry closet and step into the bright and sunny living room. Continue into the kitchen which is truly the heart of this home. From the kitchen, you have access to the first floor bathroom, 2 bedrooms, the basement door, and an exit to the outdoors through the back bedroom. Head 1/2 way Downstairs and find the side door. Take the 2nd half of stairs to the full basement currently functioning as an in-law suite with a kitchenette, 1 bedroom, and another full bathroom. The backyard needs some TLC but has plenty of space and privacy. There is a 1 car garage off the alley. Conveniently located near the Jefferson Park transit center, and I-90/94.
