About This Home

Beautifully Maintained 2BR/2BA Home on Oversized Lot in Forest Park This charming home has just undergone $35K in updates, giving it a fresh, move-in ready feel. Recent improvements include: fully repainted main level and kitchen cabinets, new interior doors, refinished hardwood floors, new vinyl flooring in the enclosed back porch, new kitchen appliances, updated lighting, reglazed bathroom, and rebuilt rear porch stairs. Inside, you'll find hardwood flooring throughout, a spacious full basement with laundry area (washer/dryer included), and interior stairs to a large unfinished attic with expansion potential. The enclosed back porch off the kitchen makes a great flex space for dining, mudroom, or play area. The oversized lot offers a rare combination of a two-car garage, a large fenced backyard, and additional side yard space. Fantastic location-just three blocks from Forest Park Plaza shopping and the Park District with its water park and recreation center, and only half a mile to the CTA Harlem Blue Line and Forest Park Transit Center for easy commuting. The neighborhood is improving rapidly, with new townhomes one block away selling for over $600K.
