Welcome to this charming 3-BR | 3.1-Bath Cape Cod in the sought-after Carpenter School district! Beautiful updates throughout will tug at your heartstrings from the moment you arrive. Step into the private foyer and you're greeted by an original leaded-glass door, a captivating detail that sets the tone for the warmth and character found throughout the home. The spacious living room features custom built-ins that span the wall, offering both style and storage, while surrounding a cozy fireplace. Elegant sconce lighting adds a touch of sophistication. The kitchen (2020), thoughtfully opened to the dining room, is a true showstopper. It features crisp white cabinetry, white quartz countertops, classic subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and farmhouse-style fixtures. A breakfast bar with countertop seating finishes this bright and airy space, perfect for entertaining. A convenient mudroom sits just off the kitchen, offering handy storage and access to the roomy deck and large backyard. An updated powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, including a primary suite that fits a king-sized bed. The newly added full ensuite bath (2020) showcases a sliding barn door and subway tiles that echo the kitchen's aesthetic. Two additional bedrooms share a full hall bath. The full finished basement offers an additional gathering space for family and friends, along with an oversized fourth bedroom with newer carpet. There's also a third full bath and a laundry room for added convenience. Be pleasantly surprised by the spacious backyard ideal for entertaining, play, and outdoor enjoyment with two distinct zones for relaxing: the deck, plus a remote nook with a mounted TV-your own outdoor retreat! A detached 2.5-car garage with overhead storage completes the exterior. Located in a friendly neighborhood near Centennial Park's pool and fitness center, Uptown's restaurants, bars and shops, Park Ridge Library, Farmers Market, Metra and more-this home has it all!
