About This Home

Gorgeous 1930s Brick Colonial sitting high on a hill on a scenic street in Waukegan! This lovely home shows beautifully with incredible charm, character, and a wonderful vibe. Step inside the welcoming front foyer featuring newer slate tile, a convenient coat closet, and an arched entry that opens to a spacious living room. You will love the charming, cozy fireplace and the adjacent sunroom-an ideal space for a home office, reading room, or play area. The main level also boasts a spacious dining room with classic glass-front corner cabinets, leading into a beautifully updated kitchen (2023) complete with quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, quality appliances, and a clever built-in coffee bar tucked by the back door. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms, including an extra-large primary bedroom with deep closets and a private sitting area (previously two bedrooms and easily converted back if needed). As you wander down to the basement, please notice the convenient powder room located at the top of the stairs. The full basement is a massive plus, featuring a brand-new second full bath just finished this week! This level offers excellent open space perfect for a rec room, workout area, or home gym, plus a dedicated laundry room and abundant storage. Outside, the property features perfectly planned, low-maintenance perennial flowerbeds designed to bloom continuously from May through November, alongside two mature, fruit-bearing cherry trees. Enjoy this stunning backdrop from your fully fenced backyard, which boasts a covered bar area, a fire pit, a cobblestone patio, a storage shed, a dog run, and an attached two-car garage. Smart updates include: new roof, a complete tear-off (5 yrs), new gutters (5 yrs), electric updated 2023, a 2008 furnace, a 2024 water heater, solid plaster walls, and beautiful hardwood floors thruout most of the home. This exceptional property is well worth the look-come see it today and imagine making your own memories here for years to come!
