This 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers a thoughtfully designed floor plan perfect for both daily living and entertaining. The main level features a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace that flows in to the bonus room perfect for a home office. The large family room has a beamed ceiling and is open to the kitchen with stainless steel appliances (the range & refrigerator are only three years old) and space for a table. A formal dining room along with convenient half bath and a laundry room with newer washer & dryer located just off the kitchen complete the first floor. All four bedrooms are located on the second level, each with ceiling fans, and share a full hall bath with soaking tub. The primary bedroom features a wood burning fireplace and access to the roof deck. Downstairs, the partially finished basement adds even more flexibility with exterior access, a full bathroom with walk-in shower, and a crawl space for additional storage - plus the potential to be finished into two more bedrooms and additional living space. Enjoy a large backyard with a patio, detached two-car garage, and extra-long side driveway. New Anderson triple pane windows in 2024, newer AC condensers (6 years old). Prime location just blocks to I-90 and the Cumberland Blue Line, with easy access to Pace and CTA buses and the Edison Park Metra station. Minutes to downtown Park Ridge, O'Hare, and all the shopping and dining in Rosemont.
