About This Home
As of August 2025Wow-worthy Cape Cod charm in Old Norwood Park! This beautifully updated 4-bed, 3-bath home is perfectly positioned across from the park and just moments from top-rated Taft High School. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by rich hardwood floors, elegant crown molding, and a neutral palette that sets a timeless tone. The heart of the home is a sun-drenched kitchen featuring Merillat cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless steel Frigidaire appliances-including a beverage center-ideal for hosting and daily comfort. Unwind in the large family room with a gas-start marble fireplace, or entertain in the spacious finished basement with a dry bar and newer carpet (2022). Upstairs, the primary suite offers a newly remodeled en-suite bath (April 2024) and serene park views. Step outside to enjoy a fenced yard and oversized 2-car garage (22x26). Central air, newer mechanicals, and easy access to the interstate and O'Hare complete the picture. A rare find in a sought-after neighborhood!
