About This Home

As of April 2021

The overall feel and space of this home is surprisingly wonderful and sits on a beautiful block in the coveted Country Club Area! It's larger than expected, and also has a cozy, homey feel. The living room with large picture window is the perfect room to enjoy watching the neighborhood pass by in front of a warm fire! The broad foyer leads to the back of the house where the large dining room with new lantern light fixture will be the spot for your family dinners. The kitchen has loads of counter space, including center island with seating for two. The show stopper is the family room/great room with tall ceilings and wood beamed vaulted ceiling, tons of windows bringing in loads of natural light and a view to the backyard. Football games, cartoons, your favorite drama - this is the space to relax at the end of the evening or play during the day! OR...Keep all the toys contained in the room just a few steps down in the office/playroom/virtual classroom/future bedroom/den - you name it! The second level has 2 nice sized bedrooms with large closets, generous hall bath with tub, plus a hallway with 3 additional large closets, including cedar. The huge 3rd level suite is all yours! Primary bedroom, 2 closets, a bonus area that can be an office, and a large en suite bathroom with tub and separate shower. Basement has been recently finished out and has tons of space and potential including the possibility of adding fixtures to the designated bathroom area where the plumbing already exists. Award winning school, Spring Avenue Elementary School, and William F Gurrie Middle School, is just a few blocks walk. Downtown La Grange is packed with restaurants and shops and 2 La Grange train stations that'll take you right to the city. I-55 and I-294 close by!....
