Fully updated Four Square offers the best of classic and new. Owners have replaced or updated everything from the Furnace, A/C and H2O Heater to the 2+ Car Garage, built in 2011. Thoughtful details such as matching the original 5-panel wood doors in the 2-story addition are evident throughout this clean, exceedingly well maintained home. Located on one of the prettiest streets in River Forest, blocks from everything!
