Wonderful American Four Square located on a delightful block of single family homes - less than a mile, and about a 15 minute walk to the Blue Line and Metra stops on Montrose! The perfect blend of original charm combined with many updates make this home ideal for today's contemporary living. Enter through the peaceful and relaxing enclosed front porch, which does have a vent for heat and AC, and you are greeted by a spectacular oak staircase and a gracious foyer. Gather family and friends for conversation in your living room, and dine or entertain in the spacious dining room. Each room is flanked by original oak pillars that exude the craftsmanship of a bygone era! As you view the home, be sure to seek out the original leaded and stained glass windows! The updated kitchen has plenty of maple cabinets, including a large pantry cupboard, stainless appliances and granite counters, and it includes an ideal space for your breakfast table & chairs. The home features Pella replacement windows plus an Anderson Patio Door to ensure modern day comfort. Go ahead and plan a spectacular Housewarming Party for yourself this summer! Entertaining will be a snap as the kitchen opens onto a spacious rear deck with a natural gas line for BBQ'ing! The deck flows seamlessly to the lower level paver patio for shaded relaxation while viewing the incredible perennial garden - it's truly an oasis! Three spacious bedrooms and a beautifully renovated marble bath are located on the second floor, and the walk-up attic is just waiting for your finishing ideas - perhaps a home office or primary bedroom suite? The nearly 7' tall unfinished basement has an ideal work room together with the laundry, abundant storage, and space to work out. There is definite value-add potential there! The newer three car garage is perfect for storing not only your vehicles, but all the other "toys" we tend to accumulate when we buy our homes! Beyond this block and its amazing neighbors, you can stroll to the Portage Park itself - featuring ball fields, tennis courts, outdoor pool (site of the 1972 US Olympic Swimming Trials), dog park and a wonderful Farmer's Market. It's just 2.5 blocks to the west! Finally, there are restaurants, coffee shops, and much, much more all along Irving Park Rd. and Milwaukee Ave.! What are you waiting for? Call me today for a showing!
