Spectacular opportunity in the Country Club neighborhood of Park Ridge, this home has it all! The lovely curb appeal of this elegant French Normandy style home is just the beginning. Character abounds! As you enter through an original oak door with lovely stone surround and step into the foyer, you're met with sunny, spacious rooms. The gracious living room has hardwood floors, a wood burning fireplace, and beautiful, original, ornate moldings. The living room leads into the formal dining room which has French doors into the screened porch and yard. Off the dining room is a true chef's kitchen with high end stainless steel appliances including Thermador range, custom cabinetry, lighting, and granite countertops. The island features Bosch microwave drawer, and seating for 3. Instant filtered hot water is a great feature as well! The kitchen leads into a spacious family room with gas log fireplace.

Three more bedrooms and a full bath along with ample closet space and a balcony over the screened porch. The home also has a walk-up unfinished attic perfect for storage. Fully finished basement with newer washer and dryer. The backyard is an entertainer's dream, featuring a huge deck, natural gas grill, and spa setting with a large in-ground pool and hot tub and beautiful, mature perennial landscaping providing lots of privacy. Plenty of room for it all back here. The screened porch is serene and lovely for morning coffee and relaxing or just to hang out after taking a swim! Many updates over the years include roof, windows, boiler, entire kitchen, paint, refinishing hardwood floors, and more. This house has been meticulously maintained and the location can't be beat - walking distance to everything uptown Park Ridge has to offer - shops, restaurants, Whole Foods, Trader Joes, the Metra and more!

R-2
Single-Family Residential District
The R-2 Single-Family Residential District is intended to create a low density environment of single-family homes in areas clearly distinguishable as residential neighborhoods, located upon sites comparable in dimensions to the typical lot size for single-family housing within the community. Limited non-residential uses that are compatible with surrounding residential neighborhoods may be permitted.
