It's here, the ranch you've been looking for in the beautiful Cumberland neighborhood of Des Plaines! Introducing this charming mid-century modern home of brick and Lannon stone , on a handsome corner lot. A one story doll house built by the current owners has been maintained and cared for with pride of ownership for nearly 60 years. Featuring original hardwood floors, recently refinished, loads of natural light, a roomy kitchen, a full basement, and a full two 1/2 car attached garage. The main floor has been updated over time but the flow and finishes are timeless. Enter through the center entry with living space to one side of the home and baths and beds to the other. The living room is adorned with a Lannon stone wood burning fireplace flanked by built in book cases. The kitchen is central to the flow and has room for a table. The bedrooms and baths are in great shape with hardwood floors. You might feel that retro vibe particularly when entering the basement, AKA " rumpus room". It is the full footprint of the home and boasts a second fireplace. The Laundry is in the basement/mechanical and storage area. The attached garage enters the sun porch which then enters into the dining room. The yard is fully fenced and the lot next door was once part of the property but sold to the neighbor last year. They bought to have more open space as it will hopefully remain. Enjoy the view without the taxes or maintenance. New HVAC system-heat and air 2023. This is a gem waiting for your personal touches. It is an opportunity to live in a architecturally interesting neighborhood situated between amenities of Mt Prospect and Des Plaines. Plenty of convenient shopping, great schools and highways to the city and to O'Hare. If you like vintage you're going to love this home. If you don't, it is a solid home that you can remodel to your taste, and live in it during renovation. It is clean and in mint condition an absolute must see!
