Property Description
Located in the heart of Old Homewood, this beautifully maintained home offers over 2,000 square feet of living space with 3 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, and 2 half bathrooms-providing comfort and flexibility for everyday living. Just blocks from the Metra and downtown, the location is as ideal as the home itself. Step inside to find a welcoming living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a cozy front sitting room with western exposure perfect for morning coffee, a formal dining room with a charming bay window, and a spacious eat-in kitchen with ample storage and counter space. Upstairs, two of the three bedrooms include walk-in closets, and the primary bedroom and full bathroom both feature vaulted ceilings that enhance the natural light and sense of space. The finished basement offers additional living space and includes one of the half baths, with the potential to convert it into a full bathroom. Outside, enjoy a completely private, low-maintenance backyard and a detached 2-car garage with a pull-down ladder to a convenient storage loft. Enjoy city-style living in the suburbs-within a 10-minute walk to the Saturday morning farmers market and frequent village events in downtown Homewood, Irwin Park for summer concerts, a variety of local restaurants, and the Metra station. This home is a great opportunity to make your mark in one of Homewood's most sought-after neighborhoods.
