Property Description
Charming Victorian-Style Home in Prime Lincoln School District Welcome to this beautifully maintained Victorian-style home, built in 1998 with modern features that blend seamlessly into the neighborhood's historic character. Situated in the highly sought-after Lincoln School District, this home offers exceptional walkability-just steps from the CTA Purple Line, Metra North Line, South Boulevard Beach, and the vibrant shops and restaurants along Main Street. The inviting covered front porch opens to a light-filled living room with a bay window and built-in storage bench. The open-concept first floor boasts high ceilings, hardwood floors, and a thoughtfully designed layout that includes a combined kitchen and dining area-perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen, remodeled in 2020, features an Italian 36-inch range, a 12-foot walnut island with built-in seating, and an atrium window that fills the space with natural light. A walk-in pantry provides ample storage. A gas-start wood-burning fireplace with a mantle, creates a cozy atmosphere. Double patio doors lead to a shaded back deck, surrounded by mature Crimson Norway Maple trees-an ideal spot for morning coffee or summer evenings with friends. A well-sized powder room completes the main level. The second floor is carpeted and offers three generously sized bedrooms and two full baths. The spacious primary suite comfortably fits a king-sized bed and furniture, featuring two large closets and an updated en-suite bath. The additional bedrooms are bright and offer ample storage. The finished basement with 8-foot ceilings serves as a versatile family or rec room. A full attic provides even more storage space. Recent updates, including a newer roof and HVAC system, ensure peace of mind. Completing the home is a large 2.5-car brick garage with an electric car charger and space for two to three additional cars on the apron. The backyard offers a serene outdoor retreat to enjoy year-round. With its blend of vintage charm and modern conveniences, this home offers the best of both worlds-all in a prime, walkable location near the lake, transit, and local favorites. Don't miss the opportunity to make it yours!
