Historic Libertyville home, blending the best of old and new!! Originally built in 1931 with a thoughtfully designed addition seamlessly incorporated in 2002. Located in the highly sought-after historic neighborhood, boasting progress all around. The open, inviting family room features custom cabinetry and a gas fireplace. The kitchen/dining/eating area combo opens to the large family room, further highlighting the openness found in a modern setting. The original cove stucco ceiling and wood-burning fireplace have been preserved in the living room, highlighting the original craftsmanship of the home. A southeast sunroom filled with natural light makes for cozy den / nook. An abundantly large mudroom provides access to the back of the home, deck, and fenced yard for everyday convenience. The second floor features 4 bedrooms -three original plus the master suite added in 2002. There are also 2 full baths on this floor. The highly accessible finished attic/loft, reached via internal staircase, rounds out your total finished square footage. There is careful attention to detail throughout the home: original interior doors and hardware preserved, full wood doors, custom trim, and a seamless stucco exterior designed to match the original. Full unfinished (yet comfortable) basement provides opportunity for a rec room, work shop, laundry, and plenty of storage. The backyard features a Two Car Detached Garage, along with a large playground area. Walk to downtown Libertyville, coffee shops, restaurants, shopping, Metra train, and all three levels of schools. (District 70 and District 128)
