Property Description

A striking wood-burning fireplace is the first thing you see upon entering this solid brick Chicago bungalow, serving as the dramatic focal point of the main living space. Completely redesigned and updated throughout, the home features refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, new fixtures, new doors, and new windows-creating a polished, move-in-ready feel while preserving timeless character. The main bedroom offers a huge walk-in closet, a rare and desirable feature for a bungalow. An oversized mudroom provides excellent flexibility and can easily serve as additional living space, a home office, or a drop zone for everyday convenience. The updated kitchen and bathroom showcase contemporary finishes that complement the home's classic charm. Bright, sun-filled living areas offer excellent natural light and comfortable, functional room sizes. The full basement includes glass block windows and a sauna, offering abundant storage and exciting potential for additional living space or a private wellness retreat. Outside, a fenced yard with mature trees adds privacy and outdoor enjoyment. Conveniently located on the South Side near public transportation, expressways, schools, parks, and neighborhood amenities. An exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking a fully updated, well-maintained Chicago bungalow. Easy to show.
