Property Description

If location, curb appeal, and timeless character top your wish list, this exceptional home delivers on every level. Situated on one of La Grange's most picturesque streets, you're just blocks from Elm Park, one block to the Stone Avenue Metra station and West End business district, and an easy stroll to top-rated schools and vibrant downtown dining, shopping, the movie theater and library. From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch-complete with a classic swing-sets a warm, welcoming tone, perfect for relaxing summer days and connecting with neighbors and friends. Inside, rich architectural details shine, including original woodwork, hardwood floors, French doors, stained and leaded glass and built-ins throughout. A gracious foyer with an open staircase leads to a sun-filled living room featuring a bay window, fireplace, and custom built-ins, as well as an elegant dining room with original buffet and china cabinet. The first-floor family room offers serene views of the beautifully landscaped yard, while the eat-in kitchen includes a breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances, and a mudroom with access to the back porch and a convenient powder room. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms each offer tandem sitting rooms or ideal home office spaces, along with walk-in closets. A third bedroom and a hall bath with a classic clawfoot tub complete the second level. The finished third floor adds incredible flexibility with a spacious loft, two additional bedrooms and a full bath. The finished basement expands the living space with a recreation room, abundant storage and a dedicated laundry area. Outside, the fully fenced backyard features two distinct patios-a circular brick patio and a bluestone patio with a brick border-ideal for entertaining or unwinding. A rare three-car detached garage adds even more appeal. All of this within walking distance to highly regarded schools: Cossitt Avenue Elementary, Park Junior High and Lyons Township High School North Campus.
