About This Home
As of May 2025In pristine condition, this lovingly cared for home is poised high off the street, & sits amongst stunning mature landscaping...like a "secret" garden w/a pebbled patio & granite stairs, this private oasis provides incredible views, no matter the season from the warm & inviting 4 season sunroom...a place you'll never want to leave. The spacious LR features a gorgeous fireplace & a picture window, along w/hardwood floors, that you will find throughout this home. A cozy DR leads to the thoughtfully designed & updated kitchen w/new quartz counters & backsplash. The cabinets are "modern" yet classic...so pretty! W/3 spacious bedrooms, this home provides comfortable one floor living...but if you need room to grow, there is an impressive full walk-up unfinished second level, & an immaculate basement...each offering unmatched expansion potential. Rarely does a home like this come to market on the West Side at this price, while offering total convenience to both public & private schools. Wow!
