About This Home

As of September 2021

Charm and character of yesteryear abounds in this brick bungalow. Located just one block from downtown, a few blocks from the lake, and a stones throw from Chicago, the location of this home is ideal! From the moment you walk up you will notice the custom craftsmanship that went into this home. The brick exterior, wide inviting stairs to the front porch, and sold oak door with tandem window invite you in. Upon entry you will immediately be impressed with the hardwood floors, high ceilings, solid panel oak doors, original hardware, and stunning original woodwork. Features include ample size living and dining rooms, three bedrooms, walk-in pantry with built in, basement with walkout to the rear yard, and walk-up attic which could easily be finished for additional living space. The two car garage is accessible from the alley. Ideal for anyone looking to gain value with a little sweat equity. The bones are solid on this one, let your finishing touches make it the stunner it can be!
