Outside, the upgrades continue with a brand-new 2.5-car garage, with capacity for an EV charger, new concrete patio and sidewalks, new aluminum gutters and soffits, new rear vinyl siding, new fencing, fresh landscaping, and new sod-creating an attractive, low-maintenance exterior. The location is just as impressive. Enjoy an exceptional walk-to-everything lifestyle with easy access to schools, parks, shopping, dining, and both CTA and Metra transportation.
