Welcome to 400 W Cossitt- an English styled home which seamlessly blends period architectural details with modern appointments, on a lush, professionally landscaped corner lot. Situated in the highly desirable Historic LaGrange district, this home offers all the conveniences of a walk to everything location (Cossitt Elementary school, restaurants, library, shops, parks and commuter train). Charm and character everywhere you look: hardwood flooring throughout, rich millwork, arched entries, French style windows, leaded glass, built in China cabinet and shelving. From the moment you step inside, the cozy and bright entry leads you to the foyer and sets the stage for this special home. The living room features a plaster cove ceiling, a fireplace with marble surround, a charming bench framed with open shelving, French style windows which invite tons of natural light. A few steps way, a serene three-season porch with views of the tree lined street serves as a perfect hideaway or a home office. The statement chandelier and built in China storage hutches adds to the atmosphere of elegance in the formal dining room. Just steps away is the updated galley style kitchen with granite countertops, custom cherry cabinetry, an open pantry closet, and stainless-steel appliances - including newer (2024) LG Refrigerator and (2024) Bosch dishwasher. The second level features a generous primary suite with a shared bath, which was completely remodeled in 2021. This remodel project included adding new copper piping, new plumbing fixtures, new vanity, new floor and wall tile. The space is finished with a walk-in closet, and two additional closets. The third level hosts three additional bedrooms, including one that could serve as ana secondary primary suite (with easy access to unfinished attic- great for storage) and a classically designed additional bath, featuring heated mosaic tile flooring, beadboard wainscoting, walk in shower, pedestal sink. Bring your vision to the unfinished basement which provides direct access to the backyard and laundry space (with newer GE washer/dryer added in 2021).
