The present owner has lived here for 59 years! A lovingly cared for home is ready for a new homeowner. It offers a fantastic location on the Edison Park/Norwood Park border and just a block to the well known Dairy Queen at Devon and Canfield. It is bright and sunny and is located in a quaint neighborhood. Enjoy the outdoors while looking out the large bay window in the dining room. A functional kitchen has hosted many holiday parties. The living room is spacious with a western exposure. Two good size bedrooms, a full bath and a fabulous family room finish off the first floor. The layout could even work for an in-law arrangement if needed. The second floor has a large bedroom with plenty of storage, a bath with shower and a loft area which is perfect for an office, nursery or library. Last but not least, come on down to the finished basement with rec-room, laundry area, storage AND a fantastic workshop. If you have wanted a space to work on projects, crafts or a studio...this is it! The maintenance free exterior is a plus. Enjoy the 2.5 detached garage which offers lots of storage. The super deep back yard with patio for entertaining and fun complete the package!
