About This Home
As of August 2025Welcome to the townhome you've been waiting for-ideally located in the sought-after Blaine School District and offering four levels of thoughtfully designed living space, including 3 bedrooms + office, 3 full bathrooms, and three private outdoor spaces. Situated in an unbeatable location, you're within walking distance of vibrant neighborhoods like Roscoe Village, Southport Corridor, Wrigleyville, and North Center, plus an abundance of local shops, restaurants, and entertainment. Commuters will love being just steps from the Irving Park Brown Line, offering easy access downtown. The entry level opens to a spacious foyer with ample storage and direct access to the attached garage-plus a rare second parking spot in the driveway. A versatile first-floor bedroom (ideal for a guest room, office, or family room) features sliding doors to a covered patio, along with a fully renovated bath boasting a steam shower with gray subway tile surround and a full-size washer/dryer for convenience. Upstairs, the sun-filled second level offers an expansive living and dining area with hardwood floors, a gas-start fireplace (pre-wired for a mounted TV), and new French doors opening to a Juliet balcony. The dining area includes a stylish modern light fixture and a niche perfect for a buffet or bar setup. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a subway tile backsplash, and a large island with seating. A built-in desk/planning station adds flexibility for a home office or coffee bar, while sliding doors open to a spacious deck- perfect for grilling and entertaining. The third level features two generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with vaulted ceilings, his & hers closets, and a spa-like en-suite bath with double vanity and a stand-up shower. A second full bath in the hallway includes a whirlpool tub and ample storage. At the top of the home, you'll find a versatile flex space-ideal for a second office, guest room, or playroom-leading out to a private rooftop deck with city views. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a move-in ready, spacious home in one of the city's most desirable school districts and neighborhoods! New roof to be installed in the coming months.
