Property Description
You know that sensation when you drive down an Oak Park block and the feeling hits you just right? The block, the location, and the house? Welcome to 229 S. Euclid Avenue. Loved and improved for over 30 years by the current owners, this 1890s Victorian's a keeper! A carefully curated garden and brick walkway lead you to the full, open front porch. You'll enter double doors into a charming foyer with a hall closet and lovely staircase to the second floor. To your left is a double living room with intact and operable pocket doors, 2 lovely bay windows, and a beautiful original fireplace. You will appreciate the dining room in the middle of the house, leading the way into a wonderful, light-filled white and blue cabinet chef's kitchen with a butcher block island with prep sink, farmhouse sink, cabinet-faced dishwasher, wall oven, convection steam oven, separate cook top with range hood and pot filler, plus a larger high-end refrigerator. There is a built-in table here as well as a walk-in pantry and adjoining full bath with walk-in shower, all part of a 2014 addition and renovation. From the kitchen, walk a few steps down into the atrium, a back entry area with table space, a large closet, and cozy row of south facing windows with a deep sill, perfect for lounging pets and happy plants. From here, a back entry door takes you out to the landscaped yard and a deep lot with paver patios and walkway; fully fenced and lush with perennial gardens. At the rear of the lot: a 2-car garage built in 2004 and an additional parking pad. Back inside, you'll appreciate 4 bedrooms + an office with custom built-ins on the 2nd floor, along with an expanded bathroom with both a shower and a soaking tub. There is a walk -up attic with excellent storage space. The basement is easily accessible from the back atrium area, and boasts additional storage, a 200 Amp electrical panel and laundry area, and a large rec room with a wall of walk-in storage closets. This is a great work space / playroom / family room space, tucked away from the rest of the house. You will appreciate cozy radiator heat in the colder months and central AC as days get hotter.
