This timeless brick Georgian in sought-after North River Forest has classic features and fantastic updates. The living room welcomes you with natural light pouring through oversized windows and a warm gas fireplace as its centerpiece. Entertaining comes easy here: the formal dining room links to the kitchen via a butler's pantry, while the chef's kitchen impresses with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a roomy island with seating. It opens directly to a welcoming family room anchored by a second gas fireplace, with views out to the yard and patio. The second level holds four well-sized bedrooms served by a updated full bath. Downstairs, the finished basement delivers additional living space, including a family room with a retro-cool wet bar, a third fireplace, a full bath, and plenty of storage. Park with ease in the attached garage or on the private driveway. Out back, the generous yard is made for gathering, complete with a brick paver patio, dedicated dog run, and a unique 18x9 brick shed full of potential. All this within walking distance of highly regarded Willard Elementary, parks, shopping, and dining.
