Charming, updated Norridge brick bungalow with room to grow! Rarely available, here is a beautifully updated 3-4 bedroom, 2.5-bath classic brick bungalow in the heart of Norridge, a perfect blend of timeless character and modern convenience. From the moment you arrive, you'll be drawn in by the home's original stained-glass windows, tuckpointed brick exterior, and charming curb appeal. Step inside and be greeted by gleaming, restored hardwood floors, leaded glass windows, and a spacious, sun-filled living room that flows seamlessly into a formal dining room-perfect for entertaining. The kitchen features a pantry closet and flows into an enclosed porch, ideal for relaxing mornings or extra flexible space. A first-floor office or fourth bedroom with original knotty pine paneling offers the perfect work-from-home setup, and the finished attic adds a spacious bedroom with walk-in attic storage and a brand-new half bathroom. The attic is partially finished and ready for expansion, offering huge potential to add even more living space. Downstairs, the fully finished basement nearly doubles the home's living space, featuring a large recreation room with a dry bar, a second full bathroom, laundry area, workshop, and ample storage. Whether you're entertaining, relaxing, or creating, this lower level adapts to every lifestyle need. The list of upgrades is extensive: all-new electrical and plumbing, new sewer piping (PVC), new HVAC and ductwork, new roof (2019), new washer & dryer (2023), new windows in basement (2017) and top floor (2021), and drain tile with sump pump-giving you peace of mind for years to come. The fully fenced backyard is perfect for pets, play, or relaxing evenings, and the oversized 2-car detached garage adds even more convenience. All of this is tucked into a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood just a few blocks from Chicago, and centrally located near top shopping and dining destinations like Harlem Irving Plaza, Boon Cafe, and the Fashion Outlets of Chicago. Commuters will love the quick 15-minute drive to O'Hare, 19 minute drive to downtown Chicago and incredibly easy access to major highways, buses, subway/commuter rails. Norridge Park District is a short walk away for outdoor fun and recreation. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly move-in-ready home that celebrates its vintage charm while offering modern updates and is ready for your own ideas and room to grow.
