This classic American 4-square corner home has been substantially renovated in the past few years while paying homage to the handsome original vintage features. The living room has a lovely fireplace with an antique ceramic tile surround, intricate carved mantel and French door enclosed bookcases flanking it on both sides. Above each bookcase is a delicate stained glass window looking out to the leafy street. The bookshelves have interior lighting to highlight the luster of the wood trim. A sunroom with 3 walls of windows floods both rooms with morning light. The elegant dining room has a beamed ceiling and a square bay with six tailored windows. The 2019 kitchen has been opened up to the dining room to provide terrific and open entertaining space. It has blue painted wood cabinets below and white cabinets above, white quartz countertops, a deep farmer's sink, and a full complement of high end stainless steel appliances. A powerful exhaust fan/light over the stove is clad in wood to echo the woodwork in the rest of the first floor. Glossy subway tile extends from the countertops to the ceiling. Off the dining room is yet another sunroom which makes a perfect office with 2 walls of windows overlooking the new (2022) Trex deck and the landscaped backyard out to the 2 1/2 car garage. Tall French doors can close off the room from the dining room for privacy during your Zoom calls. Beyond the kitchen, a mud room/pantry lined with floor to ceiling cabinets, drawers & the refrigerator leads to the back door out to the deck. A sun-filled half bath is off the pantry. The charming original staircase has a window at the landing heading up to the 2nd floor. 3 good size bedrooms are on this second level. The front bedrooms have windows on two walls. The third bedroom opens out to the third sunroom which is also currently being used as an office with 3 walls of windows. The full bathroom was completely reconfigured and rebuilt in 2019 with all new walls and floors, new vanity & multiple shower heads, including a rain head, 3 body jets & a heated shaving mirror. Quartz tile surrounds in the shower and on the vanity wall extend from the floor up to the ceiling. In the master bedroom closet is a door in the ceiling leading up to a quite spectacular paneled windowed attic that could become yet more living space. The unfinished basement can be accessed from the main floor or from the side door which provides great access for a workshop. The full size washer & dryer and laundry sink are under a sunny window. The sellers installed the shower to use while they were renovating the upstairs bathrooms, but it is also great for washing dogs or cleaning up after working in the garden or on a project. So much has been done to make this house move-in ready: 2 new HVAC systems 2014. New roofs on the house and garage and complete exterior painting 2020. Electric upgraded to 150 amps 2022. New electric to garage for vehicle charging 2022. Replacement windows in 90% of the home. Tankless hot water heater 2022. Ventless gas log in fireplace 2019. Wood fences on north and south 2014. Refinished and restored original woodwork and gleaming hardwood floors throughout. The wonderful deck has an electric powered awning to enjoy the outdoors even on the sunniest of days. Everything has been burnished to a glossy radiance. Sitting on the corner of two quiet one-way streets, this is as close to country living as you can get in the heart of the city. However, it's just a 10 min walk to the Loyola University Red Line stop, the Clark bus to the Loop is around the corner, Sullivan High School is just up the street, and there are shops and eateries close by. It's listed as a walker's and biker's paradise. There have been NO houses in the neighborhood at this price point in the past year and certainly none with this rare combination of vintage beauty and new kitchen, baths and systems. Move in. Hang your pictures. And relax in this most lovely of homes.
