Property Description

Lovely 1924 bungalow with many mechanical updates. 5 bedrooms above ground in this oversize Queen Anne Bungalow with pretty vintage details and loads of space. located in a neighborhood of charming vintage cuties! This home has 3 bedrooms and a fully-remodeled bath on the main floor, making it great for multi-generation families. It lives like a ranch home for those who need to stay on one level... but there's also a second story with 2 more bedrooms and a second full bath. You'll love the sweet front porch, the natural light from the oversized windows, the coffered ceiling in the dining room, the curved archway leading to the dining room and kitchen, the walk-in pantry, and the beautiful rich dark wood doors with crystal doorknobs- all the sweet vintage details. The large dormer at the top of the home means 8 foot ceilings upstairs- no crouching here! Newer HVAC (2016) with additional ductwork and zone controls so you have the charm of an older home but better temperature control: no one roasts, no one freezes. Copper piping for great water pressure, 200 Amp circuit breaker panel. Huge full basement with laundry room and roughed-in 3rd bath. 3 car garage, oversized yard with patio, and partially-fenced yard- all on a 60' wide lot. Walking distance to the award-winning Des Plaines Public Library, the hip Des Plaines Theater for live concerts, great grocery shopping, a bakery whose sourdough loaves have been ranked top in the country, and a variety of interesting restaurants. Also, walking distance to the UPNW Metra line for a quick 27 minute ride into downtown Chicago.Survey under additional documents.
