Description
This updated brick cottage is the best value in Oak Park! Sellers began by completely renovating the kitchen after purchasing their home in 2018 and haven’t looked back. There’s a new roof (2023), new sump pump and sewer rodding (2024), new supplemental mini-split AC for the 2nd floor (central A/C main floor and basement). 2019 was the year to fully renovate the main floor bath and replace the water heater. The back yard was treated to a complete makeover in 2020 including re-grading, new sidewalks and stairs, custom paver patio, and cedar fence. In 2021 the chimney was re-built from the roofline up. In between work and home improvement projects the sellers have doubled the size of their family! They will miss their neighbors and the Marion Street/Miller Avenue/Augusta block parties, not to mention this truly WALK TO EVERYTHING Oak Park location. Oak Park icons Petersen’s Ice Cream, Aliotos Gift Shop and Giardanos have been joined by upstarts Broken Tart, Penny’s Noodles, Doggie Day Play and new owners at Olson’s Ace Hardware. This home is a commuter’s dream, 5 blocks from the Oak Park Metra and CTA Green Line station. Pick up dinner at Trader Joe’s on your walk home and your day is done! Floor plans included in photos. The design, color palette and finishes are classic; the photos speak for themselves. Call your broker to set up a private appointment to view this special home asap!
