About This Home
*Multiple offers received. Best and final due Sun 4/12 @ 5pm. Escalation clauses allowed* Welcome to this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2.1-bathroom single family home situated on a large lot in the heart of River Forest. Freshly painted from top to bottom. Hardwood floors flow throughout. The main level is where a beautifully updated kitchen, designed by Rebekah Zaveloff owner of KitchenLab Interiors, impresses with marble countertops, a center island, solid wood cabinets, and an adjoining breakfast room overlooking the backyard. The kitchen opens seamlessly to the dining room, and a conveniently placed mudroom off the back door leads out to the deck - perfect for everyday living. A updated powder room and a living room overlooking the deep front yard round out the main floor. Upstairs, three bedrooms and two full bathrooms include a primary suite complete with a walk-in closet and a large updated bathroom featuring a linen closet, double sinks, and a tub/shower. The finished basement offers an epoxy floor, a dedicated office, a large family room, a laundry room, and plenty of storage space. Major 2025 exterior improvements include a new tear-off roof on both the house and garage, tuck pointed brick and sills, and new siding on the back addition - giving you peace of mind for years to come. The location is truly exceptional: walk to top-rated River Forest schools, including Lincoln Elementary and Roosevelt Middle School, both of which have earned Exemplary Designations - the highest rating issued by the state. Nearby Park District amenities include parks, batting cages, paddle courts, a sledding hill, and convenient shopping, while easy access to both O'Hare and Midway airports and a short walk to the Metra put you just minutes from downtown Chicago and the broader suburbs. You are genuinely at the center of it all.
