Property Description
Step into the timeless elegance of this fully renovated 1908 three-story home, perfectly situated on a beautiful corner lot in Chicago's historic western suburb, Maywood. Reimagined in 2019 with brand new everything, this residence blends the warmth of turn-of-the-century architecture with the sophistication of today's high-end design. From the moment you arrive, the quaint covered porch invites you to slow down - the perfect spot for a morning coffee or a relaxing afternoon on your porch swing as sunlight filters through the trees. Inside, the home opens to soaring 10-foot ceilings and a bright, airy layout filled with character and light. The open staircase, adorned with its original vintage newel post details, sets a striking tone that blends history and craftsmanship. The spacious living and dining areas flow effortlessly together, anchored by a charming bay window dining nook that creates the perfect setting for intimate dinners or morning brunches bathed in natural light. The modern kitchen is a true showpiece - designed with stone countertops, sleek stainless steel Samsung appliances, a designer glass backsplash, and elegant 42" cabinetry that adds height and drama to the space. Engineered bamboo floors stretch across the main level, complementing the home's sophisticated palette and airy feel, along with a main floor bathroom with a step-in shower with custom tile surround. French doors greet you to the perfect main floor sunroom or office, that gives bright natural light through the sliding doors and access to your large back deck! Upstairs, 3 spacious bedrooms + an office space and a second bathroom has been meticulously appointed with fine tilework, charming vanity, and contemporary fixtures. The finished third story offers a sprawling fifth bedroom, creative studio, or private retreat - a cozy hideaway tucked above it all with lots of storage. Head down to the walkout basement, which is bright and spacious, and has been extended to a fully functional height. It features a fully waterproofed and reinforced foundation with a lifetime transferable warranty. Outside, the fully fenced yard and 2.5-car garage within the fence line offer privacy and convenience. A refinished front porch and back deck extend the living space outdoors, perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings under the stars. With a newer roof, windows, mechanicals, and systems throughout, every detail has been completed with care and craftsmanship. This home is a perfect balance of storybook charm and modern ease - a place where history meets harmony. With a straight shot down 290 to the city, you will enjoy the ideal suburban lifestyle with al of the amenities of beautiful Chicago at your fingertips!
