Meticulously rehabbed by its caring long-time owners, this home has been transformed with a unique floorplan that caters to modern living and optimizes space in the most exceptional way. As you step inside, you'll be greeted by the bright and open living room and dining room, creating a warm and inviting space perfect for gatherings and shared meals. The kitchen boasts clean modern lines, ample storage, stainless steel appliances, and a convenient eat-in area. The backyard is truly impressive, spanning twice the size of a regular lot and enhanced by lush evergreens that offer both privacy and the ambiance of a secluded villa oasis. The main level features two bedrooms with generous closet space, while the lower level holds another delightful surprise. Here, you'll find two large bedrooms, a fully functional summer kitchen, and a spa-like bathroom. This lower level maximizes the living space, providing an ideal setting for you to move in without any additional work. Perfect for related living, roomates, older kids, long-term guests, and more! Thanks to the raised ranch design, natural light floods the lower level, creating an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. The home has a solar panel system to power electricity to the home! It has also been updated with recently upgraded mechanicals and appliances, a constant statement to the owners' meticulous care. Garage parking is a possibility, as there is an alley behind the property that allows for the construction of a multiple-car garage on the 50-foot-wide alley frontage. Currently, multiple cars can be comfortably parked in the existing side drive. Located in the highly sought-after Skokie area, this property offers immediate access to Dempster, numerous parks, restaurants, and even a short walk to Starbucks and grocery stores. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to the NorthShore Sculpture Park, running and bike trails, while commuters will find easy access to the Skokie Swift yellow line and the 94 expressway. This is an exceptional opportunity to own an oversized, move-in-ready home in a prime location. Don't miss out on seeing this fabulous home!
