This stunning 5-bed/3.5-bath Oak Park bungalow sits on a large lot and features everything you need in a modern home due to a 2015 renovation that included a second-floor addition. While it still has the traditional Oak Park bungalow charm on the first level, the second level has a coveted 3-bedrooms, 2-bathrooms and laundry room. When walking into the home, you are welcomed by a friendly first level open floorplan. Surrounded by windows in every room, the bright living room features great entertaining space and a gas fireplace. Leading into the large formal dining room, you have open access to the eat-in kitchen which overlooks the lush, landscaped yard. The kitchen is appointed with plenty of 42" cabinets, stainless appliances and granite counters. Also included on the first level are two bedrooms (perfect for guests or one or two home offices), full bathroom and a decked-out mudroom. Take the stairs up to the bedroom level where you are welcomed by a large skylight and the main suite includes a massive bedroom, huge, organized walk-in closet and marble bath with double-bowl sinks and shower with a frameless glass door. The two secondary bedrooms are large, as well, with spacious closets and easy access to the second upstairs bath with tub. The basement level has good ceiling height for a spacious family and game room and is finished with drywall, half-bath, concrete floors and tons of unfinished space for storage or a workshop. All updated plumbing and electrical throughout. The lush backyard has a paver patio to enjoy beautiful nights outside and a newer 2.5-car detached garage with additional parking pad for a third car. (Landscaped side yard for sale (listing# 12085995) for an additional cost.) Great south Oak Park location in Irving Elementary, Percy Julian Middle and OPRF High School. Near Barrie Park with amazing sledding hill! Steps to the Blue Line and Oak Park Arts District studios, shops and restaurants.
