Property Description
This well-kept craftsman home in Jackson Park Highlands is set on a 50 x 134 sf lot; what appears to be small and quaint from the outside is deceptively large at just under 4,700 sf. One large cozy room reveals itself to another with natural light that follows you throughout the day. This home features 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, wrap-around terrace, expansive recreation room, and a two-car garage. Upon entering, the foyer opens up to a large hallway with views into the dining room and living room that is large enough to have multiple seating areas. French doors allow access to the terrace from the living room and adjacent family room making this home comfortable for indoor/outdoor entertaining. In the kitchen, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops make food prep and cooking easy. Walk through the dining room to a private area at the rear of the house where the primary suite is located with its own screened porch. Just past the second bedroom are stairs to three additional bedrooms and another full bath on the second floor. In the basement, you will find a finished recreation room with a wet bar. An office, full bathroom, laundry/mechanical room and storage areas complete the lower level. Below the generously sized two-car garage is a full basement. Its caddy corner location on the property creates a lovely outdoor space to read a book or have dinner on a summer night with friends. This property is sold AS-IS and will shine with a few creative thoughts and aesthetic ideas. Walk to play a round of golf at the Jackson Park Golf Course or to the lakefront trail; the Obama Presidential Center is only minutes away. Easy access to Metra, CTA, and DuSable Lake Shore Drive will take you directly to the Loop.
