Wonderfully updated Single Family Home in newly recognized Edgewater Glen Historic District. This charming home features great light and space throughout. A thoughtful and bright entry opens to a large Living Room featuring bay windows, and a modern fireplace rebuild with stone surround. The gorgeous recently renovated kitchen features white mission cabinets and quartz tops with subway backsplash and a fantastic breakfast nook. The large elegant formal dining room leads out to a rebuilt office space and mudroom. A nicely renovated powder room is just off the kitchen. Upstairs, the large Primary Suite features his and hers closets, a tasteful Primary Bath, and great light. Two more bedrooms and a shared bath complete the second floor. On the lower level, a large renovated Family Room space allows for flexible uses, with a lower level powder room included. Ample storage in the basement as well, and an overhead sewer project was completed in 2020. All this just steps to the lake, the L, great restaurants and shops in a neighborhood like no other.
