About This Home
A beautifully updated raised ranch in a prime location! Perfect for buyers looking to move right in with no projects needed. This charming and well-maintained home was fully renovated in 2019, featuring updated electrical, plumbing, mechanical systems, and windows for added peace of mind. Extensive work has also been completed on the main drain to help prevent water backup, adding an extra layer of confidence. The main level offers two generously sized bedrooms, while the finished basement includes a spacious third bedroom. Enjoy hardwood flooring throughout the main level, a modern kitchen with white shaker cabinets, a built-in wine rack, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, all complemented by an open-concept layout. The fully finished basement provides excellent space for entertaining or relaxing, complete with a large family room, full ceramic bathroom, bedroom, and a separate laundry area. Step outside to a nicely sized backyard-perfect for gatherings. A standout feature for city living: this home includes a private side driveway-an increasingly rare find in Chicago-along with a newer garage (2019), offering convenient, hassle-free parking. Conveniently located within walking distance to Pete's Market, Hayes Park, and public transportation!
