Description

This beautifully reimagined brick home blends timeless Chicago architecture with fresh, modern updates across three levels of living space. Featuring 5 spacious bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, every inch has been thoughtfully designed for comfort, functionality, and style. Step through the covered front porch into a bright and inviting living room anchored by a crisp white fireplace and large picture windows. The open layout flows seamlessly into a formal dining room with custom millwork, crown molding, and a striking modern chandelier - perfect for entertaining or everyday living. The brand-new kitchen offers clean, contemporary design with white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample workspace. Each bedroom provides generous space and natural light, while all three full bathrooms have been completely renovated with custom herringbone tile surrounds, modern vanities, and sleek fixtures for a refined, spa-inspired feel. Upstairs, enjoy a spacious loft-style suite with new flooring and a designer bathroom, while the fully finished basement expands your living options - ideal for a family room, guest suite, home gym, or office. The basement also includes a wet bar, plush carpeting, and updated lighting throughout. Outside, relax on the covered front or back porch, or enjoy the fenced backyard - perfect for gatherings, kids, or pets. A two-car garage offers convenience and security. Nestled on a peaceful, tree-lined street, this home is close to parks, schools, shops, and public transit. With its blend of classic character and modern comfort, this is a true move-in-ready gem.
