This adorable Galewood neighborhood home hasn't been on the market in over 20 years! Owners have lovingly cared for this home and have made many improvements over the years, including newly refinished hardwood with modern dark stain (2021) and new paint throughout on walls and all white trim (2020-21). Other improvements include a new furnace (2020), AC (last 10 years), Roof (approx. 2013), fenced in backyard (approx. 2013), 2 Car Garage, 220 V Car Charger for electric vehicles (in garage). Curl up with a good book in front of the fireplace, share memories around the built-in breakfast bar while cooking, and enjoy plenty of yard space for play, entertaining, and/or gardening in the HUGE backyard with a small concrete patio. Unfinished partial basement ready for the new owner's imagination to add instant equity. Pull down stairs to a large attic - another space to add square footage and value to the home...or simply use for lots of storage! Nearby amenities include Target, Aldi, Fresh Thyme Market, Walgreens, Planet Fitness, and Home Depot. One block to North Avenue and the CTA Bus #72, 3 blocks to Metra (to downtown Chicago), and two nearby parks. Some photos are virtually staged.
