Step inside to warm, inviting living spaces highlighted by hardwood floors in the living and dining room, creating a perfect backdrop for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is a true standout, designed with both style and function in mind, featuring bamboo flooring, high-end cabinetry, a newer induction cooktop, convenient built-in compost and garbage openings in the countertop, and easily accessible counter outlet-an ideal space for anyone who loves to cook and gather. Upstairs, you'll find a beautifully refreshed second level with all hardwood flooring installed within the past five years. The primary bedroom offers two closets and a private full bathroom, providing a comfortable and practical retreat at the end of the day, while three additional bedrooms offer flexible space for family, guests, or a home office. The basement is exceptionally clean and well maintained, offering excellent storage and a great opportunity to create future living space while already being functional for hobbies, workouts, or a workshop. The attached garage is enhanced with French cleat wall storage, making organization easy and adaptable. Peace of mind comes with major recent improvements, including a new furnace installed in December 2025, a new hot water heater in 2025, and a smart thermostat for added comfort and efficiency. Outdoors is where this home truly shines. Enjoy relaxing mornings on the front porch and take full advantage of the established garden setup in a yard that has been recognized as an award-winning property in the Village of Homewood-a rare and special feature that adds both beauty and pride of ownership. Ideally located close to parks, shopping, dining, Metra, and highly regarded Homewood-Flossmoor schools, this inviting home offers a wonderful blend of character, comfort, and community.
