5 Bedrooms | Brick Bungalow | Finished Basement Beautifully rehabbed brick bungalow on a classic, tree-lined Chicago block - move-in ready from top to bottom, with thoughtful updates throughout and space to spare. This spacious 5-bedroom home offers a versatile layout: three bedrooms on the main floor plus a formal living room and separate dining room, ideal for entertaining or multi-generational living. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms perfect as a primary suite or private retreat. The kitchen is the showstopper: crisp white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, subtle two-tone subway tile backsplash, and a full stainless steel appliance package including a gas range, over-the-range microwave, dishwasher, and a French-door refrigerator with bottom freezer drawers. A matte black pull-down faucet adds a modern touch. Bedrooms throughout feature refinished hardwood and durable wood-look laminate flooring, deep closets, and fresh neutral paint with crown molding accents. The updated bathroom offers a spa-like feel with a marble-look tiled tub surround, floating-style vanity, and matte black fixtures. The finished basement extends your living space with sleek, easy-care painted concrete flooring, recessed lighting, a full closet, and a dedicated laundry area already plumbed and fitted with a nearly new Midea washer and dryer set. A rear enclosed porch off the back stairs offers a practical mudroom-style entry to the fenced backyard, which features mature shade trees and a private paved parking pad off the alley. Mechanicals have been updated too, including a newer high-efficiency AC condenser. The exterior is classic Chicago brick with a charming dormer roofline, updated windows, and a monitored alarm system already in place. Set on a quiet block lined with mature trees and well-kept brick bungalows, close to shopping, dining, transit, and parks - this one checks every box.
