From the moment you arrive, the classic appeal of 6140 S Kostner Ave is evident, offering a seamless blend of timeless charm and sophisticated modern updates. The inviting main level features gleaming hardwood floors that flow throughout an expansive living room, where oversized windows allow natural light to pour across the space. At the heart of the home, the chef-inspired eat-in kitchen is masterfully appointed with polished granite countertops, a full suite of stainless steel appliances, and abundant cabinetry, while the nearby bathroom serves as a serene retreat with ceramic tile flooring and an elegant, oversized vanity. The second floor reveals a versatile sanctuary, hosting a sprawling third bedroom with a massive closet and a stunning bonus loft. This multi-purpose space is bathed in a soft, ethereal glow from overhead skylights, making it the perfect setting for a peaceful home office or an artist's studio. While the interior is beautiful, the home's infrastructure offers unparalleled peace of mind, featuring a high-efficiency HVAC system (2021), a newer roof (2018), and energy-efficient windows (2016). Beyond the living quarters, the unfinished basement stands as a blank canvas ready to be transformed into your dream recreation room or home gym. The outdoor space is equally impressive, offering a generous backyard and a premier 2.5-car garage built in 2021. Ideally located just moments from Midway Airport and the vibrant heart of the community, this home is an exceptional find that combines modern reliability with the warmth of a true Westlawn classic.
