This home has been continuously upgraded and is truly move in ready. You will notice immediately the curb appeal this home brings with its freshly painted exterior. In the springtime, the perennials will bloom and catch everyone's eye. Walking into the home you are greeted by classic hardwood floors and recently painted rooms throughout the entire home. The living room, (currently being used a dining area) is flooded with natural light, lined with crown molding, and showcases a wood burning fireplace. The dining room, (currently TV room) also brings in a ton of natural light, beautiful chandelier centering the room, chair rail trim, and if you lift the rug you will find the hardwood floor has an artistic touch with the painted rug floor. The kitchen continues to impress. The stained glass sky light ties together the painted cabinetry with custom hardware. The butcher block countertops, farmhouse sink, opened wooden shelving, and subway tile backsplash blend modern connivence with a historic look. Upstairs you will find all four bedroom and the recently renovated full bathroom with a quartz vanity top and tiled shower/tub. All four bedroom have hardwood floors, no carpet in the entire home! The laundry space is located in the basement, as well as a half bathroom, and plenty of space for storage. The best part of the home is the backyard. An excellent space for entertaining with the paver brick patio, gazebo, outdoor grilling/bar station, and new shed. The backyard continues the same trend as the front with tons of perennial flowers. No backyard neighbors, the fully fenced in yard leads to Irwin Park. This home is known to many for the mural and painted fence. Schedule your showing today to see this beautiful home on the highly sought after Sycamore Road.
