About This Home
As of November 2024Amazing transformation of a Chicago Bungalow--this property is totally unique and one of a kind! The current owner took a one story bungalow, gutted it, added a primary suite, opened up the first floor, and finished the basement--wow! All was done while keeping its prairie style and architectural integrity. Take a moment to admire it from the street before you step in and get wowed by the beautiful gas fireplace, and the large, open living room/dining room combo. There is a terrific family room "nook," across from a pretty powder room, and a giant kitchen with custom Amish style cabinetry and granite counters, which features an oversized island in the center of it all. The first floor is made complete by a beautiful enclosed porch--there are so many possibilities: is it an office? guest space? homework space? The flexibility is fabulous. Upstairs, there is a lovely primary suite, complete with full bathroom, a nursery tandem room (currently being used as storage space), an office area and a large walk in closet. Heading back down to the basement, we are met with two nice sized bedrooms and abundant storage, that were completed, with village approval, in 2007.This house is so unique, and will be the perfect home for the next family. First floor rehab was done in 2004/2005, and included plumbing, electrical, ductwork, kitchen, bathrooms, floors, fireplace and furnace. Approximately half of the windows were replaced with custom Anderson windows. There is a brand new fridge, new washer/dryer, and a new water service from the main line, which ensures great water pressure. The garage was refreshed in the last year too. Come see the new Berwyn and explore all of the great restaurants and bars on Roosevelt that you can walk to. Easy access to the Ike, and a short bus ride or walk to the Blue Line. Whether you are downsizing or a first time homebuyer, come and check out this unique home.
