Property description
This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1.1-bath home exudes warmth, character, and timeless charm. Nestled in a prime River Forest location, it has been meticulously updated by its owners over time, preserving its original craftsmanship while adding modern conveniences. Step inside to a welcoming living room featuring a decorative fireplace flanked by custom-built bookcases. The adjacent sunroom is perfect for a home office, playroom, or cozy reading nook. A spacious central dining room showcases stunning, restored art glass windows, filling the space with natural light and charm. The kitchen is a delight, complete with stainless steel appliances, a coat nook, and convenient access to the powder room. A stunning craftsman staircase leads to the second floor, where you'll find three spacious bedrooms, an enclosed tandem/heated porch, a full bath, and a built-in linen closet with drawers. The versatile floor plan allows for creative use of spaces-the dining room can easily function as a family room, and the front sunroom can serve as a formal dining area. The basement is a clean, open space with a laundry area and ample storage, ready for your vision. Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard with a charming hill backdrop, providing a peaceful retreat. A 1+ car garage adds convenience with a long driveway. Located just steps from vibrant Keystone Park, residents can enjoy an array of community amenities, including tennis and pickleball courts, platform tennis, baseball fields, and the Depot, which hosts a variety of Park District classes and activities. Also nearby are schools, Thatcher Woods, River Forest Tennis Club & Pool, the Library, shopping, and more.
