About This Home

Step right into this fantastic, income-generating three-flat on a beautiful, tree-lined street in a great location that's also owner-occupant house-hacking worthy! From the inviting front porch, head upstairs to the sun-drenched second-floor unit, which is currently vacant, move-in ready and ready for owner occupancy if so desired. In the extra-large living room, you'll find gorgeous, newly refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, bright, tall windows, high ceilings, and a roomy coat closet. The adjacent dining area is bright and spacious enough to host all your gatherings. Down the hall, you'll pass a bright and clean full bathroom with loads of storage and a separate linen closet on the way to the spacious, newer eat-in kitchen. This cheery, fresh space is perfect for prepping your best meals and snacks with loads of cabinetry, miles of white Corian countertops and space for a breakfast table or work-at-home space. Three generous bedrooms in this unit include a large primary (can easily fit a King-sized bed!) with a large double closet and two additional ample-sized rooms also with great closets. Off the kitchen, you'll find your own private deck with tree-top views overlooking the serene yard. The first-floor unit also boasts sunshine and space, with a similar floor plan to the top floor, featuring newly refinished hardwood floors in the living areas, a contemporary look kitchen with Corian countertops, generous bedrooms, and its own covered deck, too. The sunny garden unit features a huge open concept kitchen/dining/living space and two extra-large bedrooms, plus a full bath as well as a private side entrance. The property boasts an adorable yard with a cute side patio, beautiful trees, as well as a three-car garage! But you and your tenants won't need cars, though, in this heart-of-everything location that's convenient to all Forest Park and Oak Park have to offer. Excellent investment - the seller has done all the heavy lifting in the past 10 years - new kitchen in 2nd floor unit; updated kitchen in 1st floor unit; carpets removed and new/refinished hardwood floors in living areas of 1st and 2nd floor units; separating the HVAC for the garden and 1st floor unit - each unit now has its own HVAC; a 2-year new roof and more. Incredible location that's minutes to Green Line, Blue Line, Oak Park Metra, 290, shopping, dining, coffee, ice cream, movies, nightlife, parks, and more! Build your equity in this turn-key desirable property while your tenants pay most of your expenses! This is the one you've been waiting for--welcome home!
