Description
Curb appeal, central location, nice features & updates and a huge backyard! This English Tudor has wonderful curb appeal in a truly superb River Forest location – walking distance to Blue-Ribbon public schools, shopping and the Metra. What a wonderful first home (or downsizer)…and the 178 foot lot offers a very special opportunity for an addition to this fine property. Sunny living room features a wood-burning fireplace and alcove seating. Beautiful plaster cove ceilings accent the first floor and there are hardwood floors throughout. The kitchen features nice counter & cabinet space and a quaint breakfast seating area that looks out on the beautiful, fully fenced backyard landscaped with perennial gardens, outdoor fire pit and winding paver paths leading to a 2.5 car garage with pull-down storage and a 2 car parking pad. The second floor features 3 bedrooms including a huge primary bedroom. Pride of ownership is evident in the recent updates that include (2022) Tear off Roof; New Sump Pump; New Hot Water Heater; Exterior Trim Painted and (2020) New Boiler, New AC Compressor and (2012) Space Pac AC (with air handler in the attic). Sellers request at least a June/July closing.
