What’s special

Central air2-car garage
This gracious stone and brick 4+ bedroom, 4 bath home has been lovingly cared for and renovated inside and out. It's move-in ready and offers all the space and amenities you need for comfortable everyday living and exceptional entertaining. The center foyer sets the tone showcasing beautiful crown molding, arched doorways, and hardwood floors found throughout. The sizeable living room has a working fireplace, tons of windows, and built-in shelving and cabinetry. The spacious and bright dining room leads into the eat-in kitchen that's designed for serious culinary enjoyment with double ovens and chef's island (moveable). Not cooking? Gather around the spacious peninsula, the stylish eating alcove and the scullery area with extra cabinets and counter space while enjoying music streaming from amplified built-in speakers. The main level has a half bath and three additional flex rooms: a TV room with original built-in shelving and a huge picture window; an office with terra cotta tile floor, a skylight, and two walls of windows; and a rear two-story multi-purpose room-ideal as a sunroom, mudroom, or sitting area-with huge windows and skylights. Retreat upstairs to four sizable bedrooms, including a primary suite featuring a huge walk-in closet and a full bath with heated floors and a towel warmer keeping it cozy! The additional, recently updated full bath on this floor is a pleasant retreat with beautiful tile and a large soaking tub and shower combo. The finished lower level is a refined, all-ages and all-activity destination complete with a workshop, a versatile bonus room (guest room, gym, or second office?), a full bath, and a recreation room featuring a cozy fireplace, wet bar with beverage fridge, and custom built-ins. Step outside to the large backyard anchored by a custom pergola draped in fragrant trumpet vines, cooled by a remote-controlled overhead fan, and wired with outdoor speakers. Mature trees and perennials frame the fully fenced yard. Two car garage plus additional spaces for 1-2 more vehicles. Owned by an interior designer and a talented craftsman, every detail has been considered to make this home a beautiful haven for family and friends. Don't miss this treasure in central Oak Park on a street known for great block parties, impromptu get-togethers and cul-de-sac pickle ball games.
