Charming, cozy, and full of possibilities! Welcome to this inviting bungalow nestled on a quaint, peaceful block in Maywood-an ideal opportunity for a first-time buyer, someone looking to downsize, or an INVESTOR seeking a solid property with room to add value. Gleaming hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, complementing the home's warm and welcoming character. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including dishwasher and microwave, and a convenient walk-in pantry. The fully rehabbed bathroom offers a relaxing jetted whirlpool tub. Major updates provide peace of mind, including a new HVAC system and ductwork and roof in 2020, new vinyl windows in 2021, new appliances in 2022, and a new 100-amp electrical panel. Central air adds year-round comfort. Originally designed as a 3-bedroom, 1-bath home, the seller opened a portion of the wall between Bedrooms 1 and 2 to create a spacious walk through room. Easily convert it back to a 3-bedroom layout to suit your needs. The dry, unfinished basement offers excellent potential for future living space, recreation, a home office, or storage. An unfinished rear porch provides additional opportunity and leads directly to the basement. Outside, enjoy a large backyard and deep lot with plenty of room for gardening, entertaining, play, or future ideas. Conveniently located just minutes from the I-290 expressway, local restaurants, shopping, and everyday amenities, with approximately a 20-minute drive to Chicago. A charming home with meaningful updates, flexible living options, and exciting potential-come see all it has to offer!
