On a charming, quintessential-Riverside tree-lined street sits this expanded, vast stucco home on a deep, wide lot with a 3-story addition yielding a floorplan that's perfect for today's hosting and every day living. Off the covered front porch, step into a roomy foyer boasting both a coat closet and a handy bathroom. The living room and dining room are spacious with tall, bright windows and hardwood underneath the carpeted floors. The kitchen and adjacent sunroom offer a large, sundrenched space ready to create your dream kitchen with access to the large deck. As part of the addition, the huge family room offers a fantastic wall of windows plus French doors leading to the deck. The added first-floor bedroom and another full bath on this level are ideal for a contained guest suite, exercise room, private den, office or more! On the sprawling second floor you'll find five additional roomy bedrooms and two more full bathrooms. The vast, generous primary bedroom has it's own wall of windows and French doors leading to a private balcony and the floorplan allows for an easy conversion of one hall bath to a primary en-suite to make your true private oasis. Two bedrooms in the original part of the home with carpet have hardwood underneath. The unfinished basement is the footprint of the entire home and currently has a generous laundry and utility room and plenty of storage and can be finished if you need expanded living. Outside, you'll find a massive lot with beautiful foliage along with a two story, four car garage! This vast diamond in the rough in the heart of town on a giant lot is a rare find indeed and is offered As-Is. The hard and expensive part of expanding the home has been done - do the fun part of personalizing it and and get ready to enjoy the best of all Riverside has to offer - schools, shopping, library, summer farmers' market, and concerts, dining, coffee, ice cream, easy Metra access to the city, and so much more! This is a one of a kind opportunity that seldom comes around--make it yours today!
