Property Description
Welcome to 17811 Harwood Avenue - a beautifully updated two-story home on a spacious corner lot in the heart of Homewood. While listed as a 3-bedroom, the current owners have thoughtfully configured the home as a 4-bedroom, offering incredible flexibility for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. With plenty of room to grow, this layout adapts easily to your needs. This move-in ready residence blends classic charm with modern upgrades, offering the perfect combination of character and convenience just blocks from downtown shops, restaurants, and the Metra. Inside, you'll find a thoughtfully renovated interior featuring an updated kitchen (2018) with a large island, white cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, two remodeled bathrooms - one on each floor (2018), and bright living spaces with newer windows throughout (2010 & 2018). The first floor includes two bedrooms, including the primary suite, while the second floor offers a third bedroom, a cozy sitting area, and a spacious flex room currently used as an office - easily convertible into a fourth bedroom. The full-height basement, completed in 2017, adds valuable living or storage space and includes an overhead sewer system for peace of mind. Major system upgrades include all-new plumbing, main floor electrical, HVAC, and water and sewer lines to the street - all completed in 2018. Additional highlights include a new concrete patio (2019), charming front and rear porches, updated siding and partial roof (2018-2019), and a detached garage with an upgraded electrical panel. A truly rare find with major improvements already done - this home is ready for its next chapter. Don't miss it!
