About This Home

Rarely available, raised first-floor, south-facing 2 bed, 1 bath in the heart of Roscoe Village. A true top-to-bottom refresh just completed, delivering a fully reworked, move-in-ready home with thoughtful updates that go beyond surface level. The home has been repainted throughout-walls, ceilings, trim, doors, and baseboards-and paired with refinished red oak and maple hardwood flooring for a clean, cohesive finish across the entire space. The bathroom was completely rebuilt down to the studs with all new plumbing, featuring a new shower with updated tile and fixtures, new vanity, mirror, lighting, and penny round flooring, along with a reglazed vintage tub that adds just the right amount of character. The kitchen has been refreshed with updated cabinet hardware, along with a brand new stove and microwave. Two generously sized bedrooms, great closet space, and in-unit washer/dryer offer everyday functionality. All light fixtures, outlets, and switches have been replaced throughout the home. A large private back deck and beautifully landscaped, fully gated courtyard is a standout-ideal for pets, gardening, or simply enjoying green space. A shared roof deck with city views adds an additional layer of outdoor living. One of the most unique features is the oversized 16x16 bonus room directly below the unit-perfect for storage, a workout space, or creative studio. Easy street parking on both Oakley and Melrose (no parking included).
