About This Home

As of June 2023

Rare Mid Century Modern (circa 1962) on a secluded cul de sac zoned to sought after Oak Forest Elementary. This special home has been carefully renovated to bring the house into this millennium while still honoring the architecture of the MCM period. Beautiful micro finish concrete floors in slate grey throughout. Kitchen renovated with high gloss white cabinets, Carrera marble countertops, Bertazonni six burner stove. On nearly half an acre w/two separately fenced backyards (one with sparkling pool), the home has untold space for outdoor entertaining while leaving plenty of room to grow without ever disturbing the original footprint of the home. Too many upgrades to list! Doors, tankless water heater, newly replastered pool & new roof to be installed prior to closing are just a few. Walkable to dining, shopping, parks and more, this home is centrally located for ease in commuting and near all of the special places which make the Oak Forest area so very popular.
