About This Home
As of August 2025This two story three bedroom home has old world charm both inside and out. It features a large living room with tall windows which let in tons of light. The formal dining room has a built in sideboard and upper cabinets with leaded and stained glass doors. Note the beautiful wood molding on the doors and entrances. The large kitchen has many cabinets, table space, garden window, and sliding glass doors to a very large deck which overlooks a brick patio area and lots of green space - great for entertaining. The second floor includes a study, den, or playroom, as well as three bedrooms with transom windows on doors. Updates include new central air. In addition to the attached garage, there is additional parking in a drive at the back of the house. The home is located in a great close to town location with proximity to the elementary, junior high, and high school, as well as the Metra, great downtown restaurants, grocery store, library, and lovely Swan Pond for nature walks. This home is a great fit in Historic Riverside.
