About This Home

As of August 2022

Welcome to Forest Park and this generously sized bungalow with classic vintage details such as hardwood floors, trim, and crown molding in excellent shape. The home welcomes you to stunning stained glass windows kept in impeccable condition. The living room opens to the ample dining space with south-facing windows to bring in tons of natural light. The kitchen has original metal Geneva cabinets waiting for a retro color to create a show-stopping kitchen. The skylights in the west-facing primary bedroom upstairs create a lovely oasis. The second bedroom upstairs is currently used as an office but spacious enough to be a proper bedroom-two more bedrooms on the main level complete this four-bedroom home. Please note the first and second floors each have a full bathroom - perfect for guests or in-law space. Enjoy the pleasant backyard with mature perennial plantings. Recent enhancements: tear-off roof in 2012, new sizeable 2-1/2 car garage in 2018, Nest thermostats and some smart outlets, smoke/CO detectors installed in 2018, new gutters in 2021, new storm windows in 2018, and the 2nd-floor furnace and A/C replaced in 2020. The owners have loved this home but are ready to move closer to family. Some items need attention, but they will leave that for this home's next and fourth owner.
