1022 Lathrop Avenue

Welcome home to a rare find on an extra-wide lot in the heart of Forest Park. From the moment you set foot on one of the largest covered porches on the block, you'll know that the 2019 rebuild was done right. Enter through the original refurbished oak door and set your eyes on the expansive, natural light filled first floor, with hand-scraped oak flowing through the living room, dining room and well-appointed kitchen, creating the home's warm center. A main-floor bedroom and powder room, perfect for hosting or working from home, add flexibility and convenience. A proper mudroom leads to a large, fenced backyard with two patios, built-in planters, and a detached garage - plus an additional parking pad for three spots total. Upstairs, three more bedrooms, two baths, and laundry create the ideal private retreat, while the large, finished basement adds a recreation room, storage, and another half bath. Dual zoned HVAC keep the home comfortable year-round, and with rebuilt features such as new 1-inch copper service, roof, spray foam and sound batt insulation, updated plumbing and electrical--all new in 2019--you have absolute peace of mind. A quick walk to the Forest Park Blue Line keeps the city easily within reach. Welcome home to Forest Park!
