About This Home

Tucked along an idyllic tree-lined street in the heart of Gladstone Park, this classic home offers the kind of charm and space you've been looking for. Just blocks to local parks, schools, and neighborhood shopping, this house also has easy access to 90/94 and is 0.3 miles from the Gladstone Park Metra stop for a commute under 30 minutes into the city. From the moment you arrive, the curb appeal draws you in, leading to a welcoming front porch where you can watch the rest of summer unfold. Step through the door into a bright and spacious living room, where front windows flood the room with natural light and a wood burning fireplace with gas starter sets the tone for cozy nights in. The adjoining dining room and full bathroom on the main level add both charm and everyday function. At the heart of the home, the large eat-in kitchen features an island and pantry, flowing effortlessly into a warm and inviting family room. It features a second fireplace and views overlooking the sparkling backyard pool, an entertainer's dream made for hosting friends and family all summer long. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms filled with natural light, including a true primary retreat with its own private balcony, a spacious walk-in closet, and a shared ensuite bathroom. There is also the added convenience of second floor laundry so you never have to haul baskets up and down the stairs again. The finished lower level offers even more room to spread out, with a rec room ready for movie nights, a dedicated utility room, and an additional oversized bonus room currently used as a home gym, easily transformed into a playroom, office, or guest suite to fit your family's needs. Step outside to your own private oasis, where the backyard pool and patio set the stage for years of memories to come. The 1 car garage off the alley completes this home. This Gladstone Park / Jefferson Park gem with low taxes offers the space, character, and lifestyle families dream of, all while keeping you connected to the city.
