About This Home

As of August 2025

Set on a tranquil, tree-lined street in Chicago's Portage Park enclave, this striking 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath brick residence blends 1940s character with contemporary convenience across its 1,461 sq ft interior! Steps lead up to the elevated front porch, welcoming you into a sunlit living room anchored by a scenic bay window that illuminates glowing hardwood floors and graceful archways that hint at the craftsmanship throughout. Your daily rhythm finds balance within the generous kitchen with its tiled backsplash, ample cabinetry, and suite of modern appliances, while morning coffee in the window-side dining alcove overlooking your fenced backyard offers a peaceful start to the day. Two serene bedrooms on the main level provide versatility, while two carpeted retreats upstairs share a thoughtfully placed half bath. Weekends were made for relaxing and hosting lively BBQs on your lawn with its concrete patio and alley access. And when it's time to tackle laundry or rotate your seasonal decor, the expansive daylight basement, with a utility sink and abundant storage, delivers practical solutions. A detached 2-car garage and a brand-new heating and air system ensure comfort year-round. Close to the historic 36-acre Portage Park, enjoy its sports fields, nature gardens, public pool, and vibrant community centers. With proximity to Wilbur Wright College, transit hubs like Jefferson Park, the Montrose Metra, and major shopping centers, you'll also have I-90/94, Wrigley Field, Lake Michigan beaches, and downtown Chicago all within easy reach. When location, style, and quality come together like this, seize the opportunity to discover a home that can redefine the next phase of your life!
