448 Beloit Ave., Forest Park, IL 60130

Get the best of both the suburbs and the city with this darling three bed, two bath brick English. Big yard? Check. Fantastic restaurants, bars, independent businesses, and a CTA blue line stop within walking distance? Got it. Highway that theoretically will get you downtown in 15 minutes? Yes, please! Situated in the heart of vibrant Forest Park, this light flooded home sits on an oversized 36x125 corner lot just steps from hopping Madison Avenue and a short walk to the Harlem blue line stop. The generous spaces of the first floor flow together, with a flexible floorplan featuring open living and dining room combo with hardwood floors, a good-sized bedroom, full bath, and an updated kitchen with a sizeable adjacent eating area. The second floor features a massive primary bedroom with walk-in closet, updated bath, and the third bedroom with a lofty open space between. This home feels expansive as is, but if you need more space, the tall dry basement is ready to be finished as you please. It also has an oversized 2.5 car garage, patio area and large yard for whatever you need--garden, dogs, kids, epic barbecues, or your very own bocce court. If your park-like yard isn't enough, there's a playlot just across the street, and the feature packed Park District park (Waterpark! Roos Rec Center! Skate park! Ice rink! Tennis courts!) is walking distance just across the Eisenhower.
