About This Home

As of October 2022

Incredibly well-maintained American Four-Square in the heart of River Forest - walkable to all River Forest and Oak Park have to offer! This home has been rehabbed from top to bottom for today's lifestyle while maintaining its historical charm. The spacious living room has much to offer - windows with three exposures - North, South, and West - creating a sun-filled living space. The new ventless gas fireplace (2021) is flanked by built in bookcases and architectural leaded glass windows, all lit with beautiful new designer light fixtures (2020)- the perfect space for relaxing and entertaining. The large dining room seamlessly connects to both the kitchen and a sunroom that is currently being used as a study space but would also be an ideal home office. The newly rehabbed white cabinet kitchen (2020) is accented with a tile backsplash and features GE appliances, maple flooring and quartz countertops. The first-floor mudroom, just off the kitchen, includes a built-in bench with storage. The fun powder room, perfectly located off the front hall, has been totally gutted and updated (2020) with new fixtures, toilet, sink and fabulous blow fish wallpaper! On the second level you will find three generous size bedrooms plus a tandem room with a built-in desk, another option for a home office, play area or can be used as an additional bedroom. Be sure not to miss the cute private deck overlooking the lush yard just off a bedroom, great for morning coffee or evening drinks. The primary bedroom includes an ensuite marble bath, with heated herringbone tile floor, double sinks, an additional closet, and a gorgeous walk-in shower. The primary bedroom has new storage/closet units as well as new windows (2021). Just off the upstairs hallway you will find a large, updated bath. The partially finished basement offers tons of space, high ceilings and is currently plumbed for a bathroom. So many updates...refinished beaming hardwood floors throughout the home (2020), new boiler (2022), new soffits, gutters, fascia, and downspouts (2020), new garage door (2021), new front entry stairs, railing and pier (2021) and so much more - please see the list of all improvements! Top rated schools and prime location - walk to downtown Oak Park/River Forest shops and restaurants, public transportation, River Forest Public Library, Keystone Park , RF Metra Depot, Thatcher Woods and more! Be sure to check out the 3D tour!
