About This Home

As of December 2024

Trade condo living for this stylish single-family home on an oversized 45-foot lot, located across the street from the historic 38 acre Portage Park. The private, fully fenced yard is a gardener's oasis, featuring a massive floating deck, hydroponic raised beds for your dream heirloom tomatoes, and separate spaces for barbecues, summertime smores in Adirondack chairs, or your next dinner Al fresco under your 100-year-old magnolia tree. The vibrant interiors strike the perfect balance of sophistication and personality, with every room thoughtfully designed. Start your mornings on the enclosed sun porch with peaceful views of Portage Park-ideal for a work-from-home office space. Host guests in a separate dining room with room for dessert in your salon-style living room. Later, snuggle up in your second bedroom/den for your HBO binge. Modern conveniences include new appliances, updated lighting, a smart Nest thermostat, and Ring doorbell. Owner/foodie installed additional cabinetry in the kitchen, walk-in pantry, and an additional fridge on the back porch for beverages (or just La Croix), leading to your unfinished basement for laundry. The primary bedroom boasts a massive walk-in closet to house all of your pret-a-porter and accessories; while the updated and expanded bathroom features a wet room, marble floors, floating vanity, and plenty of savvy storage. Landscaping updates include new wood fencing, a vegetable trellis for your vining varieties, a stone entry walkway, four season landscaping, and a climbing rose arbor leading to the side-lot vegetable garden. Room for all your tools in your single-car garage. Located within half a mile of Jewel Osco, Walgreens, Montrose highway access, Starbucks, Milwaukee Ave shops and restaurants, Binny's, Portage Grounds, Portage Park indoor & outdoor pools, dog park, and more-this artistic home has it all!
