Set a gorgeous block in the heart of Norwood Park, this special home blends timeless vintage character with tons of potential. On an exceptionally large 50' x 175' lot, classic Tudor architectural details make for impressive curb appeal. The home features 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms plus an additional partial bath with walk-in shower in the fully finished basement. Inside, recent updates include gorgeous newly refinished hardwood floors and fresh neutral paint throughout (including the basement!) The sunny living room has a wood-burning fireplace, and a big kitchen is waiting for your ideas. The basement family room/rec room is perfect for entertaining, relaxing, home office, or workout space. The good-sized bedrooms all offer great closet space, and the charming upstairs bath boasts its original tile, circa 1940. Outside, the huge lot--with well more then double the space of a standard city lot--provides plenty of room for outdoor relaxation and gardening (or for future enhancements), with a patio with gazebo perfect for barbeques and a charming backyard garden room. Exterior has been freshy painted with brand new gutters to match. A side drive leads to a 2.5 car garage and shed, providing ample parking and storage, an added convenience rare in the city. The location is truly outstanding: just 3 blocks from the Norwood Park Metra Station for easy commuting, half a block from award winning Onahan Elementary School, and moments from some of Norwood Park's great restaurants and parks. This well-maintained home is a wonderful opportunity in one of Chicago's most sought-after communities. Make it your own!
