About This Home
Welcome to 8101 S Kimbark Ave, a beautifully rehabbed 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath brick bungalow in the heart of Chicago's historic Avalon Park community. This home seamlessly blends classic architectural charm with modern comfort-featuring refinished hardwood floors, updated electrical and plumbing, contemporary fixtures, and a spacious finished basement with bonus and family rooms. Beyond the home itself, you'll love the neighborhood: Avalon Park is a close-knit, residential community known for its quiet, tree-lined streets, well-maintained homes, and strong sense of pride among long-term residents. The property is just steps from convenient public transit options-CTA buses and nearby Metra Electric-make commuting downtown simple, while local parks, grocery stores, and family-owned restaurants are all within easy reach.
