The embodying architectural significance includes 3 fireplaces, plaster cove moldings, hardwood floors, paneled doors & more! The thoughtfully expanded 1st floor family room, with a raised stone hearth & mantel fireplace surrounded by rows of windows for natural light, flows directly into the kitchen for a cozy & open floor plan. The kitchen has a huge island seating 4-5 along with a table overlooking the family room. The formal living room offers another separate congregation area offering privacy, another fireplace & beautiful views from the large picture window. 1.5 baths on the first floor(double sink) & 2nd full bath in the basement.

Entertaining friends, family holiday gatherings, parties or just simply living comes naturally in this well functioning versatile floor plan and space. Even a multi-generational family would be comfortable with the kitchen & full bath in the finished basement. Say goodbye to cold cars on those chilly winter days as you step inside your toasty 2 car attached heated garage with its own dedicated furnace & epoxy flooring. The spacious private 6-foot fenced backyard is landscaped with flowers, perennials, brick patio, built-in gas grill and a storage shed. The ultra convenient location offers so many parks/playgrounds nearby within walking distance, a short 3 block walk to the Metra train station, 6 blocks to the Cumberland/Chippewa Schools/pools/pickleball courts and an easy 5-10 minute drive to Mariano's Grocery Store & Walmart Supercenter.
