Beautiful home, much larger than it looks and ideally located on a desirable oversized corner lot in Garfield Ridge. This charming 4 bedroom (1 bedroom in basement) and 2 bath raised ranch offers the perfect blend of modern updates and classic appeal. This well-maintained home is freshly painted and offers many upgrades. As you walk into the home, the large living room with recessed lighting and plenty of natural sunlight welcomes you. The bright kitchen is updated with luxury soft-close white cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel Samsung appliances, beautiful countertops and a garbage disposal, making it a great kitchen! The dining room is right off the kitchen, perfect for everyday meals and easy entertaining. The spacious, fully finished basement expands your living space with a large open area, bonus office/bedroom, storage closets, and a clean full bath. Enjoy outdoor entertaining in the fully fenced yard with a pool and an oversized, newer 3-car garage with a party door (you can fit 4 cars) - perfect for storage, or a workshop. The deep freezer in the garage stays. Other updates include a newer roof (3 years old), a sump pump, newer closet doors, a generator (5 years old), and lots of closet space in the basement. Soundproof windows and doors done by Evergreen Windows in 2020. A fantastic opportunity in one of Chicago's most sought-after neighborhoods!
