This classic 1933 Colonial beautifully embodies the charm and character of Butler-Tarkington. From the wide front porch and white picket fence to the parquet floors, custom lighting, and bespoke window treatments, every detail reflects timeless style. A gracious entry welcomes you with a striking two-story foyer and elegant curved staircase, setting the tone for the home's refined interiors. The formal dining room flows seamlessly into a thoughtfully renovated kitchen, showcasing marble countertops and backsplash, premium Jenn-Air and Bosch appliances, including 2 ovens, 2 dishwashers, and a free-standing ice machine, and easy access to a functional mudroom and attached two-car garage. The main level also features a formal living room anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace with access to the covered front porch, along with an inviting den highlighted by custom built-ins. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers two closets and a beautifully renovated and appointed ensuite bath with a walk-in shower, garden tub, and dual vanities. Two additional generously sized bedrooms and a recently renovated hall bath complete the upper level. Rare for this historic neighborhood, the finished lower level provides a comfortable family room, fourth bedroom, and renovated powder bath-ideal for entertaining or hosting overnight guests. Located just blocks from the shops and restaurants at 56th & Illinois and surrounded by nearby parks and playgrounds, this home offers an exceptional lifestyle in a highly sought-after setting. With so many remarkable features to admire, this is a property that truly must be experienced in person.
