About This Home

Completely move-in-ready and tailored for today's work-from-home lifestyle, this home boasts a main floor private office with built-in desk, cabinets, and ample natural light. Flooring has been completely refinished throughout for a brighter, airier feel. New LVP flooring in basement, removal of carpet upstairs to reveal beautiful solid oak floors and new carpeting installed on the stairs - the all new feel brings a renewed sense of luxury and a clean finish. The adjacent open kitchen features 42" cabinets, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, a powerful range hood vented outside, and the brand new backsplash elevates the look and feel. The space connects seamlessly to the great room - a comfortable hang-out space with convenient built-ins. Enjoy views of the extra-wide 35' yard and 2-car garage from this area, or step out onto the expansive back deck accessed through the mud room with cubbies and heated floor. Across from the kitchen, a separate dining room leads to a cozy living room anchored by a dramatic floor-to-ceiling tiled fireplace surround. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite offers a vaulted ceiling, elegant bathroom with separate shower and double bowl sink. Three additional bedrooms and another full bath complete the second floor. The lower level is perfect for recreation with a play-all-day rec room, a separate storage room, and a cheerful laundry room featuring tall cherry red washer/dryer, a sink, and an extra large closet with shelving. Stay comfortable year-round with gas forced heat and central air conditioning. This home has been completely renovated with modern 200amp electrical, copper plumbing, and new roof in 2021. Located in a historically friendly neighborhood surrounded by top-rated schools, this property is ideally situated. Walk east to the red line el, Foster Ave. beach, and lakefront bike path, or west to Andersonville's entertainment, shops, and renowned restaurants. This home embodies everything you could want in a HOME!
