Character and charm abound in this distinctive 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom 1938 English Tudor, located on one of Norwood Park's most desirable blocks. Built by German craftsmen, this home showcases timeless architecture and sits on a generous 40-foot-wide lot, surrounded by other classic homes and a canopy of mature trees lining the street. Step inside to find a spacious front living room with a gas log fireplace, a separate formal dining room, and a rear family room addition-complete with its own fireplace-offering plenty of space for relaxing or entertaining. The first floor also features a classic vintage powder room, adding to the home's period appeal. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms and a full hallway bath. The finished basement includes a warm and inviting recreation room with brand new high-end vinyl flooring, a bar for entertaining, and a third fireplace-this one wood-burning. Flood control adds extra peace of mind. Additional highlights include a side driveway for extra parking, a fully fenced yard with a concrete patio and cedar deck, and newer windows replaced in 2017. Just a 4-minute walk to the Blue Line and with easy access to the expressway, commuting is effortless. A rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind home in a truly special location.
