This beautiful classic Park Ridge home has been updated and expanded. So many attributes from the past and many more modern appointments to enjoy. It sits on a oversized lot & tree-lined street. This house features a large addition & thorough renovation in 2000 with many other updates since. You are greeted by a deep wrap-around front porch that spans the front of the house to the family room with room for relaxing chairs. When you walk in through the period front door, you instantly feel warmth and at home. The high ceilings, oversized trim, crown molding, plentiful windows, hardwood floors are reminiscent of a different age. Living room, dining room, office, large eat-in kitchen, full bath & mudroom are on the first level. The family room sits dramatically sunken off the dining room and features a cathedral ceiling, skylight and is grounded by a floor to ceiling stone fireplace with raised limestone hearth. Every room is flooded with light. The dining room is adjacent to the office. Kitchen spans the whole back of the house and has an efficient foot print with room for food prep, casual dining, spectacular back yard views and the dream pantry. It boasts an island, double bowl farmers sink, newer SS appliances ('16) & hardwood floors. There is the cutest "mud room" off the back porch that includes plenty of sunlight and storage. Upstairs are 3 spacious bedrooms, laundry, bath with separate shower & jetted tub. All the closets are extraordinarily large. As the primary bedroom has a vaulted ceiling, a walk-in closet and balcony deck overlooking the beautiful back yard. Perfect for watching an early morning sunrise. The basement is unfinished and under the entire house, so perfect for whatever suits you-rec area, work shop, exercise room, extra laundry room, storage, you name it. With the renovation, the basement has a newer front wall, drain tile & flood control, copper plumbing, 200 A electric service, tandem water heaters, insulated throughout, windows, doors. The backyard is fully fenced. There is another covered porch in the back of the house, a patio and fully fenced and landscaped yard in addition to the front porch & balcony.
