About this home

If ever there were the "perfect" West Side location...this would be it. Set on a gorgeous, tree-lined street, yet moments to Joshua Eaton Elementary, Washington Park, the train station, downtown, & major routes. Drive up, & the front porch will beckon you in. It's EVERYTHING you've been looking for. Beautifully updated, this young home is spacious, open, bright & CUSTOM! The dream kitchen provides the "chef" w/ Bosch appliances & warm toned finishes, including Brazilian Walnut flooring, as found throughout the first level. A stunning wall of NEW built-ins compete as the "diva" in the room w/ the stunning wood-burning FP, complete w/ a reclaimed barn-wood mantle in the front to back LR. Topped w/ crown molding, windows-a-plenty & ideal lighting, you'll want to sit, relax & stay a while. Upstairs are 4 generous bdrms, all with double closets & decorator touches. A lovely half bath is off the primary...ALL baths are tastefully updated. The NEW finished LL is a SHOW STOPPER! Don't delay!!
