Your dream house has just come to market! 550 n Marion Street checks so many boxes, and is located on a quiet cul de sac block just north of Chicago Avenue's eateries and shops. This one's a winner! With almost 2900 sq ft above grade + a finished basement, this house has flexible spaces and room to spread out. A full 2-story addition in 2011 allowed for a wonderful reorganization of spaces for modern living, yet honoring the character of the house. You will love the charm of the open front porch, with a main entry door plus French doors for access. Inside, you are greeted by a full closet and built-in oak bench, and an open living room into dining room which are separated by built-in cabinetry. The middle of the house has a butler pantry area and a convenient 1/2 bath. The kitchen and breakfast room come next, and are open and connected by a large island. You will love the well-appointed kitchen, the double-sided fireplace which also faces the family room in back. There is a generous mud room at the back of the house along with the family room which is a stunner w/a barrel ceiling, fireplace and built-in bookcases, plus a bow window w/window seat looking out to the lush back yard. Upstairs you'll find 3 bedrooms and an open family room/office space (with a wall and door, this could be a bedroom once again!) Two bedrooms are accessed from this common area, and share a full bathroom. The back of house is home to a large primary bedroom suite, w/a walk-in closet, sitting room with fireplace, a private porch, and a large ensuite bathroom w/double sinks, a jetted tub, and separate shower. The bedrooms are light and bright and closet space is abundant! Heading down to the basement, there is a side entrance to the yard and a south-facing window for your sun-loving plants. The basement has a large rec room with a bar and a vent-less gas stove. Next you'll find a laundry, utility room, and a storage room w/second fridge + pantry space, plus a full bathroom and a large bedroom with double closets. This house has newer wood windows, newer plumbing and updated electrical, a sump pump w/ battery backup, on-demand hot water heater, and 2 separate HVAC systems. New roof and skylights 2017, New flat roof 2024. Get ready to enjoy the warm weather outside on the back deck or front porch and enjoy the lovely yard and wide lot. A real gem!
