Get ready for Waukegan living at its finest. Stylishly remodeled, with finishing touches completed early February 2022. 13 Philippa invites you to live in affordable modern elegance. This idyllic 2 story, 3 bedroom 2 bath draws attention with its chestnut exterior adorned with white accents and a warm auburn 2 year old roof. Drive way parking fits 4 cars comfortably. Delight with a late afternoon tea, reading a book on your expansive front porch come spring time. Enter from the porch and entertain in the sun swept living room featuring dark oak hardwood flooring. Edison lightbulb chandeliers decorate both the living and connected dining room with a rugged modern farmhouse appeal. The main floor conveniently has a bedroom (for those who are stairs averse) or a perfect guest room for your visitors, adjacent to the dining room. Enter the kitchen and find a tastefully renovated full bathroom tucked away to the left. The chef's kitchen features brand new stainless-steel appliances and lazy Susan cabinets for maximum functionality. White kitchen cabinets fashioned with black handles harmonize with the glossy mosaic backsplash and galaxy gray granite countertops for contemporary aesthetics. Head upstairs to find two lofty bedrooms, both featuring spacious walk in closets. The upstairs full bath features floor to ceiling tile and waterfront pebble flooring. The bonus room accessed through the 2nd floor bath is the only carpeted area in the house. This can be used as storage or even converted into a kid's play room. A modest backyard awaits your final touches with enough space for outdoor furnishing, picnic table and your favorite grill and smoker combo. Perfect for barbecues under string lights and after dinner dancing. There is a separate basement access from the backyard, plenty of storage and laundry hook up available. Enjoy your summers at the beach with both Waukegan Beach and Illinois State Beach Park less than 15 minutes drive or hike with the dog through 3 different parks all within 10 mins. Close proximity to shops for groceries and a variety of restaurant options for your weekly date nights just minutes away.
