Beautifully UPDATED, this picturesque HISTORIC George Burger Queen Anne move-in-ready home perfectly blends VICTORIAN charm with MODERN living - all just two blocks from the Woodstock Square and the METRA. The home design is a unique combination of a SQUARE BAY and OCTOGON steeple that stands out, giving the home an unmistakable presence. Inside, the home continues to impress with high ceilings, BRIGHT light from seven crystalline lead glass windows, a beautiful OAK staircase, original wide-plank pine flooring, pocket privacy doors, ORIGINAL entry doors, and a unique double-wide folding divider door - all with original hardware. The updated LARGE kitchen (2022) is a standout, featuring sleek GRANITE countertops, custom cabinetry, and MODERN touches, including a stainless steel Bosch dishwasher (2024), stainless steel GE Advantage microwave convection oven (2019), and can and pendant lighting. The fully remodeled primary bath (2021) is a true retreat, with luxurious marble flooring, a spacious walk-in spa-like shower, dual sinks, and high-end fixtures, including heated towel racks. Additional updates include an elegant first-floor powder room (2022), upstairs bath (2018), dual-level Trane HVAC forced air heat furnaces and A/C units, cedar closet, and custom-made cedar wrap-around front and back porches (2021). Enjoy the professional landscaping while relaxing on the WRAP AROUND front porch and a private patio.
