About This Home

As of November 2025

Welcome to 1707 North 78th Ave! This fantastic Elmwood Park brick, two story Colonial home is on the market for the first time in 50+ years and it's ready for the next owner to make it their own. Located in the River Forest Manor section of Elmwood Park, this four-bedroom, three full bath home is spacious with plenty of living space. Situated on a 50' wide lot, 1707 has old world charm with a modern floorplan. It starts with a traditional living room with a broad bay window, that flows into an open kitchen and a family & breakfast room. Kitchen has high end, stainless appliances! There is a tandem, two car attached garage with access to both the alley and the street. Upstairs there is a HUGE primary bedroom that was used as an in-law suite with an adjoining den. There are three other large bedrooms with hardwood flooring and a vintage full hall bath. Newer windows throughout and plaster walls everywhere. Large, private backyard. This home was extremely well built, well cared for, and only needs some updating to be one of the true gems of Elmwood Park. Come see it soon!
