Property Description
Classic vintage character meets modern amenities in this fabulous renovated bungalow. Situated on an idyllic street, just around the corner from picturesque Keystone Park and only a few short blocks from the River Forest Metra station, this is the one you have been waiting for. Original hardwood floors run throughout the main floor. Gorgeous Mark Menna Designs kitchen outfitted with center island, Quartz countertops with waterfall edge, classic shaker soft-close cabinetry, and commercial grade stainless steel appliances including exhaust hood. Expanded second floor allows for a spacious primary suite with vaulted ceilings, skylights, beautiful exposed beams and ensuite bathroom. Three bedrooms up, plus two additional bedrooms on the main floor, currently being utilized as an office, and play-room. Recently updated basement with a large and versatile family room. Newer windows throughout all 3 levels of the home. Sizable rear yard complete with two patios and tons of room to play. Incredibly hard to find coach-house adjacent to the 2-car garage; bring your creativity to this unique space. The coach house is currently being used as both a recreation room and home office, but could be used as a fitness area, guest space, or for any other multitude of reasons, and has its own HVAC system. Fabulous home on a highly coveted block in a convenient walk-to-everything River Forest location, in the desirable Lincoln Elementary district.
