Property Description
Charming cottage-style home in the heart of vibrant Portage Park! Ideally located with convenient access to the Blue Line, Metra, I-90/94, downtown and O'Hare, this inviting home offers a wonderful blend of comfort, character and convenience. Step inside to a bright, light-filled living room featuring southern exposure and large windows that fill the space with natural light. Nice hardwood floors continue into the separate dining room, creating a warm and welcoming setting for everyday living and entertaining. The updated kitchen features dark cabinetry, topped with butcher-block countertops, floating shelves and sleek white tile for a fresh, modern feel, plus a convenient door providing easy access to the backyard. The first floor offers two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath, while the second floor includes two additional oversized bedrooms, providing plenty of flexibility for bedrooms, home offices or guest accommodations. The full, unfinished basement is currently used for laundry and storage. While it offers additional utility space, the low ceilings make it less suitable for finishing as additional living space. Outdoors, enjoy a lovely brick-paver patio perfect for relaxing and entertaining, along with a grassy area framed by colorful landscaping. An oversized one-car garage completes the property. Whether you're a first-time homeowner searching for the perfect place to call your own or ready to downsize without sacrificing space, this charming home is a wonderful opportunity. Portage Park is known for its convenient transportation options, eclectic dining scene, shopping and fabulous namesake park, featuring an Olympic-size outdoor pool, dog park, tennis courts and popular farmers market. A charming Northwest Side gem, come see all this special home has to offer!
