Well-maintained brick bungalow in the heart of Portage Park, owned and cared for by the same family for over 20 years. Step inside this beautifully updated home, featuring five spacious bedrooms, three full baths, and over 2,500 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. The newly renovated kitchen shines with sleek stainless steel appliances, a breakfast island, and plenty of room to cook, gather, and make memories. Just off the kitchen, a bright and airy sunroom overlooks the lush backyard-perfect for sipping morning coffee or unwinding after a long day. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is flooded with natural light from multiple skylights and includes a spa-like bath with a relaxing whirlpool tub. The open-concept living room, complete with a cozy electric fireplace, creates a warm and inviting space for everyday living. The fully finished lower level offers endless possibilities, featuring a large recreation room, a full bath, and a laundry room. Plus, there's even the option to add a second kitchen, with a gas line already in place. Freshly painted and remodeled throughout, this home is truly move-in ready. The oversized three-car garage includes an EV charging station. All of this in an unbeatable location-just minutes from I-90/94 and just few blocks away from Portage Park, great shops, and fantastic restaurants.
