Beautiful North Park bungalow in premiere location! This home has spacious room sizes, and a great floorplan. While some updates will really make this home shine, you will feel the quality and craftsmanship at every turn. The front step concrete work was reworked within the past few years to create a lovely entryway. From the entryway you are welcomed into the spacious living room and adjacent dining room which are both flanked with windows to really let the light in! The kitchen was opened years ago to incorporate the back porch into the living space, which is also bright and sunny with the lovely over-sized windows. It would be a great office space or spot for your morning coffee. There are 2 bedrooms on the main level and a full bathroom. Going upstairs you will notice the nice staircase, instead of those usual steep bungalow stairs, as well as the light from the skylight above the stairs. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs; one is flanked by wood paneling and has some built-ins including a cute little bed! The primary bedroom has a bathroom with a shower. There is also a second room attached that would be the perfect work from home space, workout room, or make it a gorgeous walk-in closet! The basement was finished years ago and could definitely be given new life as a family room, playroom, hobby room, storage, man cave or a multitude of other purposes! Endless possibilities! Location is fantastic in this quiet, steady neighborhood. Close to North Park University or Northeastern University, Peterson Park, North Park Nature Center, public library, transportation and less than a mile walk to the brown line!
