Property Description

The curb appeal of this darling 5 bedroom 2 bath home is undeniable. A lovely stained glass window winks at you from the sweet front porch as you approach. Beautiful oak hardwood floors lead you through the graceful archway which separates the living and dining rooms. Admire the charming original doors' hardware on both of the bedrooms which flank the first floor's full bath. Stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops and a wonderful walk-in pantry grace the eat-in kitchen. A bright family room and third bedroom overlook the backyard and complete the first floor. Upstairs, two broad bedrooms with oak built-in cabinetry sandwich a sizeable walk-in closet. The partially finished basement offers a full bath, super storage and endless possibilities. Grill and chill on the backyard's concrete patio. Flip open the 2-car garage's party door while puttering or entertaining. Proudly perched on this block in the heart of Portage Park for over one hundred years and loved by this family for nearly 60 years, this home is now ready for its next chapter with you. Welcome home! Sold As Is.
