Enjoy the coveted location boasting a tranquil setting with easy access to downtown Oak Park, the shops and restaurants along Madison Street plus the green or blue line into the city.

Stained glass windows in the living room and art glass in the formal dining room add color and charm. The spacious dining room has a built-in buffet with a sophisticated marble bar. Gleaming oak floors, updated lighting and crisp white walls create a showcase living/dining space making it the perfect back drop for your furnishings. The chic and sleek kitchen is the ideal layout for meal prep, baking and casual meals.

A large walk-in pantry is an original feature that was thoughtfully retained for its utility. The adjoining enclosed porch creates a cozy sitting space and can do double duty as a mud room. Two large bedrooms and a full bath complete the first floor. The primary suite is a show stopper! It has all the space and features on your wish list! The king sized suite has an inspired design that includes a sitting space, a walk-in closet with glass paned door and a designer bath. The oversized spa bathroom has upgraded finishes with a walk in glass shower, double vanity sink, curated lighting and striking black and white tile. The fourth bedroom and third full bath complete the 2nd floor. The large basement is freshly painted and ready for your needs, be it a family room, workout space, extra storage or a combination use. You'll love the oversized lot with a tall privacy fence just waiting for your ideas! All new copper plumbing, 200 amp electrical service, tear off architectural shingle roof, new windows, new Rheem hvac and Navien high-efficiency tankless hot water heater - nothing to do but move in.
