From first sight, the bright red door beckons you to take a closer look. The foyer opens to a charming living room area with gas fireplace and flows into the large eat-in kitchen with a dining room that can host Thanksgiving dinner. On the second level, you will find two spacious bedrooms and one bathroom. The finished basement offers a spacious family room, office and laundry area but also welcomes the opportunity for expansion with enough room to build out a 3rd bedroom and full bathroom. A charming heated sunroom off the kitchen serves as a quaint breakfast nook or meditation room. The piece de resistance is the beautifully landscaped, zen-like backyard offering a garden oasis respite to city living. Metra station nearby and quick access to surrounding Oak Park, Forest Park, and River Forest. This house is a must-see!
