Originally built for the steel workers of the area, these iconic concrete homes were designed to stand the test of time and this one still proudly showcases the character and charm that make Morgan Park so special! From the welcoming open front porch to the traditional circular floorplan, this home has a warm, timeless feel the moment you walk through the foyers double-door entry. Inside, you’ll find original hardwood floors throughout the living and dining rooms, original woodwork, decorative windows, and an inviting decorative fireplace that adds to the home’s historic charm! The spacious dining room is ready for everything from cozy weeknight dinners to lively holiday gatherings, while the oversized galley-style kitchen offers abundant counter space, ample cabinetry, and new flooring for a fresh touch! Out back, the deck creates the perfect spot for grilling, relaxing, or enjoying summer evenings. The fully fenced yard, added by the sellers for extra privacy and peace of mind for kids and pets, makes the outdoor space feel comfortable and secure! Two off-street parking spaces add everyday convenience. Upstairs, three nicely sized bedrooms are tucked off the traditional main hallway, along with a full bathroom conveniently located near the staircase. Additional updates include new flooring in the entry and kitchen, plus a gas furnace installed in 2024 replacing the previous fuel oil system! Located near Morgan Park, Blackmer Park, and the scenic St. Louis River, this home blends historic character, practical updates, and a welcoming neighborhood feel into one truly special property!
