Presenting a rare opportunity in one of Chicago's desirable Northwest Side neighborhoods, Norwood Park. This beautifully updated split-level home with a sub basement that sits on an extra-deep 36' x 184' lot-offering an abundance of space both inside and out-and falls within the public-school boundaries of Onahan and Taft. Step inside to a bright main level featuring gleaming hardwood floors and an open layout. The crisp kitchen boasts granite countertops and a suite of newer stainless-steel appliances; it flows seamlessly into a spacious dining room and just a few steps away is a generous living room, perfect for everyday gatherings. Upstairs, three sun-splashed bedrooms enjoy hardwood floors and share a large bath with a double vanity. Only seven steps down from the main level is a cozy family room anchored by a fireplace and wet bar-ideal for game nights and entertaining-plus direct access to the yard and an updated full bath with shower. The sub-basement has plentiful storage, laundry, and mechanicals, keeping the living areas free of clutter. Outdoors, the fully fenced (2024) yard stretches deep and wide-an unusual find in the city-and is complemented by a two-car detached garage and side driveway. Recent updates for your peace of mind include: furnace, central air and humidifier (July 2021), refrigerator, microwave and dishwasher (April 2023), Commercial Wolf Oven/Range & Vent Hood (2024), Washing Machine & Dryer (2025), water heater (2019), new overhead garage door (2023), fresh lower-level carpeting (2021), and refreshed lower-level bath vanity and shower doors (about 2 years old). Move right in and enjoy everything Norwood Park has to offer: a short stroll to the Metra, forest preserves, restaurants, and lively neighborhood parades on Memorial Day and St. Patrick's Day. This is the ideal combination of space, condition, and location-truly a must-see!
