About This Home
Prime value-add opportunity in sought-after Portage Park! This solid, well designed, 1912 American Four Square sits on an oversized lot and is being sold strictly "as-is" as an estate sale. Starting with the unusual large wrap around porch with solid pillars, explore the vintage charm and amazing space. Wonderful stained-glass windows in the living room, drawing room/library, and the dining room which has the original hutch and coffered ceiling. Large kitchen and pantry, one bedroom and a full bath. There are an enclosed, unheated sunporch and a deck from which you can enjoy the very large yard. Original staircase to the second floor which has 2 bedrooms and an ensuite bath. Choose to restore the woodwork, door knobs and hardware or bring your vision to convert the extra spaces upstairs into additional rooms. Updated with GFA and central air, this home was happily occupied for the last 35 years. Basement is unfinished, with laundry and mechanicals. Newer water main and meter, some copper supply lines. Two car garage.
