The house is located on a beautiful tree line street with mature tall trees abound. An Absolutely gorgeous property that you won't want to miss. The property has been occupied by the same family for the last 60 years and it's now time for New Memories to be made in the home with new owners. The house has been meticulously cared for over the years and is in move in condition with newly re-finished hardwood floors and freshly painted walls. As you walk in you will notice the center entrance is then split up by the beautiful living room with a wood burning fireplace on the left side and a generous size dining room on the right. The kitchen is large enough for an eat-in kitchen although there is a super cute Nook in the rear for an all-season room perfect for a medium sized table and four chairs to overlook the gorgeous backyard while dining. Upstairs has 3 generous size bedrooms, a really nice size master bedroom that's 18x12 and the 4th bed room would be best as an office or turned into a really nice sized walk-in closet. The basement is full and unfinished and is ready for new ideas... The house is walkable to all local Parks, Recreation along with tons of restaurants & shopping. Located just a short commute to Down Town Chicago, O'Hare or Midway Airport.
