Property Description
Timeless appeal and beautifully updated interior found in this Chicago-style bungalow, thoughtfully enhanced with both charm and modern sophistication. Classic architectural details throughout, including rich hardwood flooring, expansive base molding, elegant crown molding and six-panel doors. The formal living room features a picture window overlooking a tree-lined street and flows seamlessly into the adjacent dining room, where a striking mid-century modern brushed brass chandelier with multiple glass globes creates a warm, inviting ambiance. The newly renovated kitchen is designed for both style and functionality, offering 42-inch cabinetry with modern charcoal finish, sleek granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Just beyond, the rear mudroom overlooks the backyard and includes a pantry closet - making it an ideal space for conversion to a cozy breakfast room. The main level includes three generously sized bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bath with a luxurious soaking tub and shower combination. The spacious second floor provides a private retreat, featuring plush carpeting, three skylights that fill the space with natural light, and flexible areas perfect for a bedroom, office, dressing space or sitting area. A stunning bathroom with a walk-in shower and modern tile finishes completes this level. The large unfinished basement offers ample opportunity for future expansion or customization. Outside, enjoy a covered front porch and a fully fenced backyard with a six-foot privacy fence, patio, and detached two-car garage with alley access. The roof was replaced in 2016. Situated near Forest Park's vibrant Park District, residents can take advantage of a wide range of outdoor amenities, including tennis courts, a skate park, a community pool, a playground, a soccer field, and baseball diamonds.
