About This Home

As of June 2016

Wonderful Craftsman Charm in this home with beautiful woodwork & hardwood floors throughout! Step into the large living room w/crown molding, interesting wood banister to the upstairs & French doors to the large sunroom. Then on to the formal dining room with swinging butler door to the kitchen with newer counters, pantry, & lots of cupboards. Half bathroom on the way to the basement. Upstairs is a VERY large bathroom with tile flooring, 3 bedrooms & a walk in closet. None of the woodwork has been painted in this home – truly extraordinary! The back yard is fenced in w/a brick patio, beautiful perennial plants granite stepping stones. 1 stall garage & off street parking. Super convenient to the expressway & busing to downtown GR. About 3 blocks from Lincoln Park & Valley Field ball Park.
