Efficient kitchen functions well with ample storage between the 42-inch cabinets, pantry closet, retro wall storage and movable island. Granite countertops and all-new appliances in 2018. Kitchen connects seamlessly to the smartly-finished mud room that flows nicely to the finished basement. Included in the well-designed lower level is a large bedroom with full en-suite bath and walk-in closet. A separate powder room services the family room, kitchenette and laundry center. Bonus exercise space, desk nook and wine room, too. All baths are completely new and home is painted in neutral tones throughout. 3 bedrooms on 1st floor. Electric and utility room mechanicals located for easy extension to finish second story.

If you really want more room, the attic is expandable and has an interior stair. Just a few blocks to Lincoln Elementary, Roosevelt Middle School and Metra.
