About This Home

Spacious vintage charm with thoughtful modern updates! Located on a quiet one-way street, this sunny and meticulously maintained Portage Park home sits on an extra-wide 30' x 125' lot, offering space to breathe both inside and out, along with a detached two-car garage. Two main-floor bedrooms and a full bath provide flexibility for guests, work-from-home needs, or a growing family. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a full bath - with separate soaking tub and shower - are complemented by flexible open space, private storage, and skylights that fill the second floor with natural light. This home blends timeless character with meaningful updates, including refinished hardwood floors throughout, an updated kitchen, renovated second-floor bath, custom built-in shelving, new kitchenette flooring, water heater replacement, and a Smartpak whole-home air conditioning system. Professionally designed by the homeowner, a landscape architect, the front and rear gardens offer a rare urban retreat with mature plantings, structured greenery, and inviting outdoor spaces for relaxing or entertaining. Within blocks to Gray Elementary School and Portage Park, and minutes from Six Corners, I-90/94, and the Grayland Metra station. Enjoy easy access to coffee shops, farmer's market, tennis courts, baseball fields, swimming pool, playground, dog park, and more.
