Property Description
Six bedrooms. Three full baths. A sun-filled Great Room with a fireplace. 6039 W. Montrose doesn't ask you to compromise - it just checks every box. The sun-filled Great Room is the heart of the home - an open-concept kitchen and family room in one, anchored by a fireplace and featuring warm wood cabinetry, dark granite countertops, and a large center island with bar seating. A main-level bedroom with a full bath conveniently across the hall works perfectly as a home office, guest room, or in-law suite. Upstairs offers generous bedrooms with ceiling fans and great closet space, plus pull-down attic stairs for easy extra storage. The finished basement brings a second kitchen, full bath, additional bedroom, family room, and in-unit laundry - ideal for large gatherings, multigenerational living, or a fully independent in-law setup. Out back: a private deck, fire pit seating area, and fully fenced yard make this a legitimate three-season retreat. Taft High School district. Close to shopping, dining, parks, and transit with an easy commute downtown. Homes with this much space don't sit - come see it.
