Property Description
Welcome to this classic American Four Square in one of Oak Park's most sought-after neighborhoods! Blending timeless charm with smart updates, this beautifully maintained home offers the perfect backdrop for comfortable living and effortless entertaining. Located just steps from top-rated schools, beautiful parks, a public pool, and public transportation, this home delivers the ideal Oak Park lifestyle. Inside, original hardwood floors and large, light-filled living spaces create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The cozy sunroom off the front of the home, drenched in natural light, is the perfect spot for morning coffee, a home office, or a reading nook. The kitchen was fully refreshed in 2023 with brand-new plumbing and electrical upgrades, offering peace of mind alongside modern style. A full bath completes the main level, blending functionality with everyday convenience. Upstairs, find three generously sized bedrooms and a crisp full bathroom, providing flexibility for family, guests, or work-from-home needs. The partially finished basement adds even more opportunity - ready to transform into a playroom, fitness studio, or creative workspace. Outside, the newer siding (installed within the past five years) gives the home a fresh, polished look, while the backyard blooms with colorful perennials and offers a private escape for relaxing or entertaining. This is a rare opportunity to own a lovingly cared-for home with timeless appeal in a prime location. Welcome home!
