About This Home

As of October 2013

Set on a tree-lined street near downtown Des Plaines, this elegant center entry bungalow is remarkably intact with outstanding natural woodwork, wood floors, decorative fireplace with stained glass fronted book cases and fabulous vintage light fixtures. On an exceptionally large lot, there is plenty of room for gardening, croquet and touch football. Full basement and attic are ripe for upgrading.
