About This Home

As of April 2022

Fantastic Queen Anne Bungalow in convenient location just a few blocks from downtown La Grange. The incredibly inviting living room with wood-burning fireplace opens to the relaxing sun room and formal dining room with sliding glass doors to an amazing screened in porch. Charming, white eat-in sunny kitchen. Three spacious second floor bedrooms and a full bath. The walk-up attic provides perfect expansion potential for a 4th bedroom, rec room or office (all that's needed is heat). Wonderful additional living space in the finished basement with family room, rec room with wet bar, second full bathroom, laundry room and work room. The screened in back porch is enjoyed nine months out of the year and overlooks the fabulous deep yard complete with two car detached garage and basketball hoop. New roof on house and garage 2020, new washer and dryer 2020 and new electrical panel 2017. An absolutely charming home in a convenient in-town location.
