About This Home
As of February 2021You will adore this quaint brick and cedar Cape Cod located in the often admired and sought-after Ridge Acres, within walking distance of Western Springs. With attention to detail, the current homeowner beautifully updated this home both inside and out and went a step further to include updating the "bones" as well. The front entry welcomes you in with all new landscaping (professional) and newer front paver walkway. Living Room amenities include hardwood flooring, crown molding and custom wood shutters. The adjacent office has separating French doors-perfect for our current "work at home" status but could easily convert to a dining room or guest room. The eat-in kitchen is on trend yet timeless with white cabinetry, a center island with breakfast bar, stainless appliances, and a spacious eating area with sliders to the deck and yard. The second floor is surprisingly spacious featuring a cozy loft space at the top of the stairs, additional bedroom and a full master suite with nicely updated bathroom with a wonderful walk-in closet. The basement level has not been forgotten either with a spacious family room, full bathroom, and a newly updated laundry area and a bonus room as well, which has exterior access to the side of the house. The spacious back deck overlooks the groomed back yard. All this is walking distance to schools, parks, shopping, restaurants and the Metra Train Station.
