About This Home

As of August 2025

Charming, white brick farmhouse located in one of Northfield's most sought-after neighborhoods. Walking distance to schools, Clarkson Park, downtown Northfield, and Willow Park, makes the location hard to beat. This vintage charmer offers endless possibilities for a new owner to make it their own! Bright and spacious living room centers around a wood burning fireplace with built in bookcases. Sunlight streams in through the south and west facing windows, adorned with plantation shutters. Front sunroom is perfect for a play area, or office. Formal dining room, powder room, and kitchen with charming bench, granite counters, and stainless appliances complete the first level living spaces. Rear screened in porch functions as mud room space which is just a few steps from the detached 2 car garage. The second floor has three large bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Would be very easy to convert one of the bathrooms to a primary suite, and still have two additional bedrooms with another full bathroom. The unfinished attic presents potential with nice ceiling height which offers some possibility for additional bedrooms or rec room space. Unfinished basement is currently used as a play space for children, laundry room, and ample storage. Outside, a picturesque front yard along with the rear patio which extends the entire span of the property, with the possibility to remove some of the hardscape to add some "back yard" space. The possibilities are endless, do not miss the opportunity to make this home yours!
