Looks can be deceiving and this one will surprise and delight you. From the curb, it appears as a small ranch. However, once in side, it is a spacious 3 bedroom, 2 bath full with a full basement walk-out! Built on a 25,007 square foot (over a half acre lot) lot in Unincorporated LaGrange Highlands, this 1957 beauty has had some wonderful updates that include (2026) the refinishing of all the hardwood floors throughout the main level, fresh paint throughout, new outlet switch covers, all new carpeting on the stairs to basement and the family room, updated lighting, refreshed composite deck (new in 2015) including freshly painted railing, which includes a safety gate. The kitchen was updated (2013) with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, large island also with granite countertop and white cabinetry. The updated features of this home continue with new upper sliding door (2017), downspout drain (2020) and new lower level full bath and laundry (2020). In addition to the deck, this home has a large concrete patio off of the walkout basement sliders. The swing set and large storage shed complete the expansive back yard all this in a perfect serene retreat only minutes from Western Springs and LaGrange Metra Stations. Area Amenities include: University of Chicago AventHealth LaGrange Hospital, La Grange Country Club, Highly Rated District 106 Highlands Elementary and Middle School and District 102 Lyons High School, La Grange Field Club, Springdale Park, and the 55th Street corridor of restaurants and shops.
