Property Description

HIGHEST & BEST SUNDAY 3/1 @ 5PM. This iconic River Forest Buurma Brothers-style home masterfully pairs historic architectural integrity with a sophisticated, modern glow-up. Nestled on a premier block known for its timeless character, this residence has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded to offer the pinnacle of contemporary comfort. The interior radiates elegance, featuring newly refinished hardwood floors, designer wall coverings, and professional closet systems, all complemented by updated climate essentials like a newer boiler and central AC. The luxury extends outdoors to a private sanctuary, where the newer paver patio with a built-in fire pit and gas grill overlooks professionally landscaped grounds. Secured by a new driveway with an electric gate and a dedicated wrought iron kennel, this home is the perfect blend of classic prestige and effortless, move-in-ready living.
