Available for the first time in 50 years, this stunning Victorian home with an oversized lot has tons of updates, unique features, and beautiful landscaping that set it apart from anything else available in Oak Park. This currently four-bedroom (could be five bedrooms-two bedrooms were merged into one on the second floor), one and a half-bath home, with a separate living room (with wood burning fireplace) and dining room has been lovingly maintained by the same family since 1973. In addition to a 2-car garage it also includes a heated outbuilding used as an art studio since its construction in 2012 that could be used as office, wood shop, music studio, or as second, heated garage. They have done extensive work to update and improve the home: new tear-off roof and reconstructed chimney-2022, new exterior paint-2021, basement repainted/floor sealed -2023, second floor bathroom remodeled-2018 (handcrafted oak bathroom cabinet made by artist Fred Nagelbach), Front porch stairs rebuilt-2021, new back deck and pergola built-2020, HVAC system maintained and checked-2023, stove/oven repaired and checked-2023. The front yard has a large porch and the back a deck, pergola and English garden planted with dozens of flowering perennials. This home is equidistant to the three schools (Beye, Julian, and OPRF High School), near the green line of the CTA, close to METRA, the CTA Blue line, the Ridgeland Commons pool, the Oak Park Farmers Market, numerous parks and schools. Groceries, dining, and Oak Park's downtown are all nearby as well. This is a rare opportunity to get a great space close to all the amenities Oak Park has to offer.
