About this home

Welcome home to this elegantly updated vintage charmer! Original details abound including brick facade, arched doorways and hardwood floors, but countless updates for todays buyer include a large family room, newer mechanicals, and updated kitchen and baths. A warm entryway with half bath opens onto a cozy formal living room with fireplace and the modern eat-in kitchen with double corner built-ins. Just off the kitchen is a large family room addition that opens onto the deck overlooking a spacious fenced in back yard and a mudroom entry from the attached garage. Upstairs you will find 3 spacious bedrooms including the primary bedroom with french doors that open onto a quaint Juliet balcony and an updated bath including new tub and tile. The unfinished basement has plenty of room for storage. The home sits on a quiet cul-de-sac with mature trees and easy access to 41 and 294 via Lake Cook Rd. This one shouldn't be missed!
