About This Home
As of March 2023A large single-family house on an impressive wide and long lot in vibrant Ravenswood provides space, light and function. Built in 1890, this frame farmhouse has been lived in by the current owners since 2008 and retains much of its vintage charm- large rooms, big windows, bulls-eye moldings, a large front porch. The flow of the first floor is very welcoming and can be used in a very modern way with a formal living room, huge family room and kitchen, and a great dining room. The second-floor features 4 bedrooms that are generous, with closets and windows to maximize the light from the wide, deep lot, a full bath and laundry. The basement is set up with 2 bedrooms, bathroom, living room and kitchen but easily incorporated into the house if that is what works for your lifestyle. During the covid lockdown, this house was able to welcome multiple family members and allow private space for everyone. It offers so many possibilities-work your magic and build on what is here already. The layout and size are enticing, the high ceilings and vintage woodwork are desirable. Modernize the kitchen and baths. Add a contemporary primary bedroom suite by modifying the current layout. Keep the charm. You can most certainly live here for a while to see how you fit with this functionality or tear the house down to create a magnificent site for your dream house (RS-3 zoning). This neighborhood is characterized by beautiful, big homes on wide, deep, oversized lots. This block has some amazing residential masterpieces. The yard is a magic garden with trees and plants curated by the current owner. There is a 2-car garage, large rear deck, patio with pergola, grapes, pears, flowers galore! Steps from the new Metra Station, a block away on the south side of Lawrence and Ravenswood, allowing for great ease of transportation to the North Shore or downtown, muted train noise and unique urban views ; Mariano's, Lincoln Square and Andersonville amenities, This property is an amazing opportunity for you to create whatever your heart desires.
