About This Home

As of April 2020

Here you go! Fabulous opportunity to live in a really cool house in the heart of Oak Park. Walk to everything! Schools, shopping, the Oak Park farmers market, parks, tennis courts and restaurants. The huge front porch is the perfect place for spending a quiet moment or enjoying the outdoors with friends and family. Awe-inspiring Craftsman detail starts in the foyer and carries throughout this renovated home. In the living room gather around the wood-burning fireplace. The dining room has lovely leaded glass windows, an original built-in and beamed ceiling with lighting that brings an elegant touch to the room. This home also features a big kitchen sure to delight one or multiple cooks and huge breakfast room, fit for a crowd. The kitchen space has views of the magnificently landscaped double lot and opens to the multi-level deck and patio, perfect for entertaining. It even has a space for your BBQ...can summer be far behind? The first floor also features a cozy family room with built-ins and a charming 1st floor office just steps down from the foyer with a 1/2 bath. The expansive 2nd floor has a music room, large open hallway that leads into the master bedroom with its tandem sitting room, 3 additional bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The 3rd floor bedroom retreat is the perfect guest space with treetop views, its own bath & storage. Back in the kitchen head down to the basement with its spacious recreation room, laundry room, bathroom, utility room and storage galore. Did I mention the 2 car garage? Park your car and forget it! Walk to the Green Line, Metra or Oak Park's Ridgeland Common Pool and Ice Rink? What's not to love. See it today.
