About This Home
As of May 2024This lovely 2 BR/1 BA home has been meticulously maintained. You will love the newly refinished hardwood floors AND all of the refreshed woodwork throughout. Enter to find original art glass in the foyer and a large living room complete with a gas fireplace flanked by oak bookcases. The newer triple track storms/screens (2016) on the refurbished original windows fill the first floor with light. The large separate dining room boasts more art glass windows and plenty of space to entertain. The original kitchen invokes nostalgic treasure with its built-in cabinets, pantry, original sink (and doorbell!), also opening to a screened-in porch overlooking the cute backyard with many perennials. The second floor has 2 large bedrooms with 2 closets each. The bathroom has a clawfoot tub with shower, pristine original tile, and a linen closet. The freshly painted basement awaits your ideas for more finished space. Zoned Central Air Conditioning (2014), Solar panels (2020/owned) save on electric. Newer tear-off roof (2018), and exterior stucco redone (2018). There is also a whole house fan. The back yard is a shady oasis with vinca vines instead of grass=low maintenance. Two car garage is newer. Conveniently located in a highly desirable area of Oak Park with easy access to schools, parks, trains (green and blue lines, and Metra) and expressway as well as great proximity to downtown Oak Park and Forest Park with restaurants, coffee shops, shopping and theater. This one will not last!
