Property Description
Looking for a move-in, nothing to update home? Then this is the one! It's a meticulously taken care of, recently updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick home on an oversized Park Ridge lot. It's perfectly situated on a quiet, tree-lined street, is just steps from Southwest Park in the Cumberland Woods area, and is in the public schools of Washington, Lincoln, and Maine South. This home offers a blend of a timeless layout, thoughtful updates within the 3 levels of living spaces.

The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a pantry closet, and a breakfast bar. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, all with recessed lighting and a recently renovated full bath with a heated towel bar and a deep soaking tub. The lower level offers a large family room perfect for relaxing or entertaining, a full bathroom with a heated towel bar and shower, and a dedicated laundry room. Recent improvements include windows and exterior doors throughout, the roof, its flashing and gutters, the boiler furnace, and the driveway. A list of improvements is available. The detached garage has an attached screened-in porch, giving you extended living space, a bug-free area, and a semi-private retreat. The generous backyard offers plenty of space for gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying the outdoors. Convenient access to the Kennedy Expressway and O'Hare Airport makes commuting a breeze, and it's a 2-mile commute to two of the METRA train stops. An excellent opportunity in a sought-after location - Now is the time to make this home your own!
