Impeccably maintained and beautifully updated, this oversized split-level brick home offers four levels of finished living space, including a highly sought after sub-basement, all on a quiet cul-de-sac street. Located within the award-winning Park Ridge school district while benefiting from lower Niles taxes, this home delivers the perfect blend of location, space, and value. Step inside to a welcoming foyer that opens to a bright and spacious main level featuring gleaming hardwood floors and an effortless flow between the living and dining area, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The expansive kitchen is a true standout, showcasing custom white cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a large island with seating, and a dedicated eating area with pantry. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bath, all enhanced by abundant natural light and timeless finishes. The sun-filled lower level offers a warm and inviting family room, a fourth bedroom, and a second full bath, perfect for guests, in-laws, or a private home office setup. The fully finished sub-basement provides exceptional additional living space, featuring a recreation room, a large laundry area, a versatile bonus room (ideal for a gym or walk-in closet), and extensive storage. Step outside to enjoy a huge, fully fenced backyard, perfect for entertaining, complete with a patio and a covered pavilion for outdoor dining and gatherings. Additional highlights include sump pump, overhead sewers, newer HVAC & windows, and a long driveway leading to a 2-car attached garage. An amazing location 1 block from Emerson Middle School!
