Amazing single family home with room to grow! It's a dream to live on the friendliest block in Chicago-the kind of street where your kids can run up and down the block, borrow a cup of sugar and partake in cocktails and ice cream socials with the neighbors. The annual block party has decades of history and the sense of community is strong. This incredible Roscoe Village location is also convenient to the CTA Brown Line and walking distance to Roscoe, Southport, North Center and Lincoln Avenue restaurants and shops. Educational prospects couldn't be better with CPS's Audubon Elementary, St. Andrew's and St. Ben's Catholic Schools, all Blue Ribbon award-winning institutions, just blocks away. Built at the turn of the last century, The home was renovated in 2008 by the prior owner. Current owners lovingly continued the work. The home has unique details like built in dressers, imaginative coves for storage,, etc. Enter through a vintage vestibule-the mudroom of the late 1800's-and appreciate the quaint glass door leading to the living room, or run up the front stairs to hit two bedrooms. Updated lighting and window treatments add functionality and glamor to the family space. The handsome kitchen marries today's white cabinet trend with luxury stainless Viking appliances. Enjoy Quartz counters and luxury vinyl floor. Prepare dinner to serve in the eat in kitchen, dedicated dining room or on the deck overlooking the lush back lawn. A huge historic brick garage is easy on the eyes and so large, you can fit your cars with plenty of room for additional storage and space for playing! The sellers have maintained the garage with tuckpointing as needed, replaced the pedestrian door + they painted the interior and installed a basketball hoop! It's a God-send during Chicago winters when kids need to get out of the house! The first floor of the home features two bedrooms with large closets and a full bathroom. You might consider converting one bedroom to a home office. The second floor features a very large primary bedroom and a sizable second bedroom/office/loft. The current owners have used this space for a nursery, bedroom, office and play space over the years, as their needs changed. The generous primary bath has a jetted tub, stand up shower with rain head, linen closet and master closet for plenty of storage. Classic dark rejuvenation-styled tiles blend the traditional styling of the home with a more updated space. From the primary room, step out onto a second floor deck to sip your morning coffee and overlook Roscoe Village. Or, imagine building an addition to the home from here, as your needs grow. We can happily share the possibilities from schematics that an architect created. The basement is outfitted with a bedroom/bathroom suite, a family room, laundry room, tons of storage and large utility room. This space is ready to be taken to the next level. Furnace was replaced in 2017. This home has been pre-inspected for an easy sale. Sellers are offering the home "as-is". Please review the floorplan in the images before touring. It's a pleasure to show and sell this wonderful home!
