An excellent opportunity to own a solid, well-maintained home in one of River Forest's most sought-after neighborhoods. This 4-bedroom, 2.1-bath single-family residence offers classic charm, a functional layout, and outstanding potential for buyers looking to customize through cosmetic updates. The main level features generously sized living and family rooms filled with natural light, hardwood floors, and large windows overlooking the front yard. A formal dining room and separate breakfast nook provide flexible space for everyday living and entertaining. The layout also includes a kitchen, mudroom, and attached garage for added convenience. All four bedrooms are located on the second floor and offer comfortable room sizes with ample closet space. A finished basement adds valuable living area, ideal for a recreation room, home office, or additional gathering space, along with separate laundry and storage areas. While the home would benefit from cosmetic updates, major improvements have already been completed, providing peace of mind and a strong foundation for future owners. Updates include a new roof, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, updated plumbing, updated windows, and a new furnace. Ideally located near parks, walking paths, Metra access, shopping, dining, and just minutes from Oak Park amenities. The property is served by highly regarded River Forest School District 90 and Oak Park & River Forest High School (OPRF). A well-cared-for home in a premier location offering long-term value and the opportunity to make it your own.
