Property Description
Charming Brick Bungalow in Historic Old Norwood Park. Nestled on the picturesque Hobart Street, just off the Circle in the heart of tree-lined, historic Old Norwood Park, this stunning brick bungalow sits on an exceptional oversized lot (49.9 x 204.5 x 38.5 x 205.5). Inside, you'll experience the perfect balance of classic charm and modern updates. Gorgeous stained-glass windows preserve the home's vintage appeal, while brand-new windows, storms, screens, exterior doors, an upgraded electrical panel, and two new AC units (installed as part of the 2023 O'Hare Window Replacement Program) ensure peace of mind and enhanced energy efficiency. The spacious, eat-in kitchen is designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining, featuring rich oak cabinetry, granite countertops, a sleek stone and glass backsplash, and stainless steel appliances (updated five years ago). A brand-new double oven completes the space, while a large garden window and under-cabinet lighting add to its appeal. Original oak hardwood floors flow throughout the home, and the interior was freshly painted in 2023. The main level also includes a completely remodeled full bathroom with contemporary finishes. One of the home's standout features is the stunning third bedroom, which boasts a wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter, vaulted ceilings, dual skylights that flood the space with natural light, and a full closet. Additionally, a spacious, insulated walk-up attic presents endless possibilities to expand the home with more bedrooms, bathrooms, or living areas. The fully finished basement is an entertainer's dream, with a large rec room, custom 12-foot bar with a fridge and sink, a generous bedroom and full bathroom, a laundry area with a slop sink, and ample storage in crawl spaces and closets. With its separate exterior access, the basement is perfect for an in-law suite or multi-generational living. Additional updates include a newer roof (5 years old), a 2 1/2-car heated garage with a workshop and attic storage, and a side driveway. The fully fenced yard features a two-tier deck and plenty of green space for outdoor enjoyment. Located just minutes from I-90, the Blue Line "L," Metra, and the highly rated Norwood Park Elementary School, this home offers an unbeatable location for both convenience and lifestyle.
