About This Home

Welcome home to this fully updated 4-5 bedroom, 3 bathroom home in the heart of Norwood Park that has been totally remodeled from top-to-bottom with modern design and high-end finishes. Step inside to a wonderful bright and airy layout featuring beautifully refinished hardwood floors, new doors, new energy efficient windows, new HVAC, new electrical and contemporary lighting fixtures, new roof and gutters, and upgraded copper plumbing. NO DETAIL HAS BEEN OVERLOOKED! The first level features a sunlit living room that flows into a separate dining room with a beautiful new staircase to the second level, chef's kitchen with adjoining family room, 2 spacious bedrooms and a full bath with designer tile and vanity. The chef's kitchen features top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including an LG oven with Air Fry and Convection Cooking Options, quartz countertops, and a wonderful sunlit adjoining family room that's ideal for casual dining or a child's playroom. The second level features two bedrooms with vaulted ceilings, loads of closets, a beautifully remodeled bathroom and a huge 242 sq. ft. storage space. The finished lower level boasts a massive 20' x 21" family room with new wood-like tile flooring (plenty of space for adding a fifth bedroom), a beautifully remodeled full bathroom, separate laundry room with new washer and dryer, and more storage areas. Ideal for guests, in-laws or a teenage child. Other plusses: two-car-garage that's been drywalled and features a new roof and two new double garage doors opening to both the alley and rear yard -- perfect for outdoor barbecues and entertaining!; a new rear backyard fence with secure gates; and beautifully landscaped front and rear yards. Located on a quiet tree-lined street, this move-in ready home is close to Taft High School, parks, shopping and public transportation.
