About This Home

As of March 2025

Nestled in the heart of Chicago's desirable Mount Greenwood neighborhood, and within Mount Greenwood Elementary School boundaries, this meticulously maintained all-brick home offers timeless charm paired with many thoughtful modern updates. Boasting two spacious bedrooms and one bathroom, this quaint home blends the perfect amount of classic craftsmanship with contemporary convenience. As you approach the home, note the inviting large side driveway which offers plenty of parking, along with the oversized two car garage out back for plenty of additional storage. Walk up the steps to the front porch, and admire the recently tuck-pointed solid brick exterior, showcasing this home's enduring craftsmanship. As you step inside, you'll fall in love with the recently refinished, gleaming hardwood floors that flow throughout most of the main level, complementing the fresh, recently applied (2025) neutral coat of paint that creates a warm and inviting ambiance in the home. Love to cook? Then you'll love the kitchen that features an abundance of solid oak cabinetry, expansive counter space, and brand-new stainless steel appliances (2024). Love to BBQ or entertain friends and family? Head outside to your large, fully fenced-in backyard to enjoy the perfect outdoor space for entertaining or enjoying quiet evenings outdoors. Ready to let loose and unwind after a hard day at work? Head downstairs to the large full basement which offers both 'vibes' and versatility with a cool retro look and feel. Highlights in the basement include: a 'retro' bar that's perfect for having friends over to watch the Bears game, brand new carpet (2025), an additional shower, and the potential to add extra living space or easily add a full bathroom (since it's already partially plumbed). And with a newly replaced sump pump, you can rest assured that the lower level will remain worry-free for many years to come! Other key updates that ensure peace of mind for the new buyer include: a 7-year-old roof on both the house and garage, a brand-new furnace and AC unit (2025) with Transferable HVAC 10-year parts and labor warranty, newer replacement windows throughout the home (except front picture window), ADT home and garage security alarm system included, a newer water heater (5 years old) and all-new light fixtures (2025) throughout that brighten every corner of the home. Nothing left to do here - this home is truly move-in ready! Situated in the most desirable area of Mount Greenwood close to great schools, parks, shopping, bars and restaurants, major expressways and public transportation.
