The inviting living room features a brick corner wood-burning fireplace, while the separate dining room has a custom built-in for added storage and character. Beautiful art glass-stained windows highlight both the living and dining rooms adding to the home's classic bungalow appeal. The original hardwood floors are under the carpeting in the living room, dining room, and first-floor bedroom, offering great potential to restore more of the home's original character. The open kitchen features plenty of oak cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a butcher block island with breakfast bar seating, that opens directly to the family room. The spac ious first-floor primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet. The newly remodeled full bath features a walk-in shower and marble vanity.

The large unfinished basement offers plenty of storage and additional possibilities, along with a second washer and dryer. Outside you'll find a spacious backyard with a fantastic deck that was built for pure enjoyment, covered back porch and 2-car garage with a party door opening directly to the yard. A character-filled bungalow with flexible living space, original details and room to make it your own! The neighborhood is also known for its excellent schools, nearby dining options, shopping and convenient access to public transportation, making it a perfect location for families and commuters. Overall, this home is a hidden gem with endless potential, waiting for the right owner who is looking to enjoy all that Oak Park has to offer. DON"T WAIT!!!
