Description

Take advantage of the early Spring season with this one-of-a-kind Brainerd home. 5 beds, 4 full baths, a finished basement, brand new roof, all-new windows, 2 new furnaces, extra-large primary suite with walk-in closets, dedicated dining area, and custom cabinetry in the kitchen with all-new appliances - this fully reimagined summer rehab with full City of Chicago permits is EVERYTHING. Now, let's unpack all this home has to offer. Step off the entrance foyer into a large living area with hardwood floors and original stained-glass windows preserved to reflect the history of this adorable home. A quartz-topped mantelpiece frames a TV accent wall, ready to receive your entertainment system. There are two large rooms and a full bath on the main level, along with a custom kitchen that is both refined and functional - crisp quartz countertops, a new refrigerator, floor-to-ceiling custom cabinetry, and direct access to the rear deck for Sunday brunch or midnight wine chats. Gorgeous extras include a pantry and an extra-large laundry room, with potential to expand the pantry space or convert it into a full-suite laundry with an ironing table and cabinets. Upstairs, you'll find a spacious primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and a massive ensuite bathroom featuring double vanities and a dedicated corner perfect for a makeup vanity dresser. Also on this level are two additional bedrooms with extra-large closets and ample windows, keeping the space bright and airy year-round. The open basement features a full bath, utility room, two large storage rooms, and a study space for your work-from-home needs. It's a layout that adapts to whatever you need - extended family, guests, recreation, or a private studio setup. Outdoors, enjoy the rare benefits of a raised deck, an enclosed side driveway for two vehicles, and a refreshed 2-car garage. You're just blocks from the revitalized Brainerd Park with its tennis courts, field house, and year-round programming. Commuters will love being close to both the Brainerd and 95th Metra stations. Everyday needs are easily met with nearby schools, grocery stores, and dining along Vincennes and Ashland. This isn't just a house - it's designed for the next chapter of your life.
