Looking for SPACE? Need to work from home? Choose from the COACH HOUSE loft, library, 2nd floor loft, or basement! This freshly painted, spectacular home located in beautiful north Oak Park is enormous and has everything today's buyer wants. Longtime owners took an 1887 farmhouse, kept parts of the charming details, including the original farmhouse doors and remodeled it to create a perfect flow. The roomy grand foyer with 8 windows opens up to the modern cook's kitchen with double Dacor ovens, KitchenAid 70" fridge/freezer, custom made Hickory cabinets, and a 9 foot island. Easily move from there to the new family room with woodburning fireplace, gorgeous Brazilian Cherry hardwood and built-in Hickory shelving/cabs. From here, walk out to the extra-large attached porch through the French doors or go through the mudroom to the back door. If you'd rather stay inside, head to the LR/DR room combo, which is about 19x28. Or, instead, head to the library/office and up the back staircase to the loft with 14 foot walls and skylights. This loft is waiting for your ideas - make it a kid's playroom, a rec room, an office, a guest room, an art studio, a music studio, a workout/yoga room, anything! The 2nd floor has an ENORMOUS primary bedroom with an ENORMOUS primary en-suite with a private deck and a fully organized, walk-in closet. Second floor laundry, 2nd floor dedicated HVAC system, 2 addt'l bedrooms and a full guest bath. On top of all of that space throughout the home is a 20x24 COACH HOUSE loft with electricity, heat and A/C situated on top of the 2.5 car garage, which is adjacent to the 3 car parking pad. Garage and coach house were built new when home was remodeled, as well as a completely new roof and gutters. Head back into the main home and down to the 1500+ sq. ft. basement that you can transform into living space (which does have an exterior door egress) or keep it as storage galore! Don't forget about the front porch that is calling your name home. Location is excellent - walk to Dole library, Whittier school, public transportation, gyms, stores, coffee, etc.
