Located in strategically situated Brainerd; in one of its most beautiful treelined streets. 2 story home with a full exterior access basement. Solid brick exterior. The interior has been dramatically modernized, opening the entire first level to truly get the best advantage of the oversized bay window for natural light throughout and make best use of this home's oversized width. The first floor addition creates a multi-use possibility, a first floor family room, media room, an office, an extra bedroom, or whatever your needs are. The open kitchen connects the separate dining room space and living room perfectly for entertaining and bring a spirit of true togetherness to any gathering and everyday life. The kitchen has great storage and preparation space, the stone island adds an elegant and useful focus point to the room. The kitchen also offers direct access to the dual patio and back yard. Both patios have been fully recemented for any outdoor need, grilling areas, outdoor dining, outdoor furniture, play areas; the uses are infinite, all surrounded by manicured grass and the oversized nature of the yard. This generous floor plan creates a clear separation between all 3 levels. The bedroom level on the second floor enjoys beautiful hardwoods and 3 well sized bedrooms with great storage and natural light. The lower level has an exterior access from the yard and also enjoys a family room or recreation area, an oversized bedroom and a den or office. The privacy this floorplan allows between floors is a highly desired element of the original construction of these wonderful Georgian homes. Exceptional convenience, located steps to Brainerd Park and Dan Ryan Woods. Minutes to Grocery Stores, coffee shops, stores. Quick access to 2 Metra locations and immediate access to the 95 Xpress.
