Charming and completely updated Craftsman bungalow in a super walkable location. Complete gut in 2012; main level floor plan was opened up and modernized - Mechanicals, Electric, Plumbing, James Hardie siding and replacement windows. Great flow from kitchen to dining to living room which boasts a wood burning fireplace. A separate office with French doors and a 1/2 bath round out the main level. Second level features 3 bedrooms, a hallway bath and a bonus tandem off the back bedroom. The primary is a 1/2 bath en-suite, but could be reworked into a full. Lower level has windows at grade, a full perimeter drain tile/sump pump and an egress door. Can easily be finished off with carpet and drywall. New 2+ garage built in 2022 with a rough run for EV hookup. Shared driveway, but the yard itself can be fully fenced. A short walk to Lincoln Elementary, Roosevelt Middle School, RF public library, Keystone Park; paddle, pickle, tennis courts and little league fields as well as the Metra Depot.
