LIVES LIKE A 3 BEDROOM! Prairie style raised ranch home on a sought-after quiet tree-lined street in Riverside. Pride of ownership is evident throughout with the many improvements owners have made while preserving the charming vintage details like arched doorways, fireplace surrounds and stained-glass skylight to name a few. Impressive living room with wood-burning fireplace, gorgeous hardwood floors and an abundance of light through the large picture window. Off the living room is a large dining room and kitchen featuring updates such as crisp white backsplash, gleaming butcher block countertops and a new sink. From the dining room and kitchen is a large four seasons sunroom/office and newly rebuilt back deck that leads into a large fenced in yard AND rebuilt 2-car garage. No expense was spared with the new landscaping planted throughout the back yard, around the home and in the front yard (which the lucky new owners will get to watch bloom this Spring!). The main level has two bedrooms and one full bathroom. The larger portion of the basement is fully finished and features another fireplace (gas), open concept family room and flex space that is a perfect third bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. It has a door and can be closed off to the partially finished portion of the basement that has endless storage and W/D. The attic has tons of potential to be finished into more living space; the ceiling heights are generous and there's a lot of room. EXCELLENT location that's a 12min walk to two different Metra stations (Riverside & Harlem) and downtown Riverside, plus the added bonus of Gage Rd which has very minimal through traffic and a park at the end of the block!
