Welcome to 2219 Royal Avenue, where classic Berkley bungalow character meets a beautifully updated, open-concept interior. At the heart of the home is a completely reimagined kitchen featuring crisp white cabinetry, a large contrasting island, stone countertops, black fixtures and hardware, stainless appliances and abundant storage, all opening directly into the main living space while preserving the home's original hardwood floors.
The main level also features a completely remodeled full bath that transitions beautifully from the rest of the home's updated living space, with a timeless white subway-tiled shower, ceramic tile flooring and all-new finishes. Upstairs, the sizeable primary suite offers a retreat of its own, including a second full bath with the space and potential to take it to the next level.
The finished basement adds approximately 700 sq ft of additional living space, with plenty of room for a second TV/lounge area, game room, home office or entertaining space. A convenient half bath offers the potential to expand to a full bath, while an adjacent dedicated laundry and storage area keeps the functional side of the basement separate from the finished space. Basement also was outfitted with a "B-Dry" Waterproofing system.
Outside, the home sits on a generously sized lot by Berkley standards, with a detached garage and plenty of usable outdoor space. The location puts you close to everything that makes Berkley such a desirable place to call home, including its downtown restaurants, shops and community amenities, while also placing you within walking distance of neighboring Oak Park's growing restaurant and nightlife scene. Rear yard was also outfitted with a professional french drain system.
A pre-listing appraisal was completed in August 2026 with an appraised value of $430,000. Immediate occupancy!
