Welcome home to your gorgeous colonial red brick residence just steps to your own private neighborhood beach on Lake Michigan. You will be impressed upon arrival with the incredible ravine setting on almost a half acre of land. The South Deere Park area provides privacy, serene views and a short walk to an amazing beach. Most of the hard work has been done on this home with a few last rooms that are awaiting your own personal design. The lay out of the home provides perfect flow and the natural sunlight streaming through all of the new windows delivers views of your breathtaking lush yard. You are greeted with a striking newly installed front door as you move into the formal entryway. All of the hardwood floors throughout home have been refinished and re-stained with new wood installed on second floor landing and hallways. The spectacular light finish and the new black iron railings on the stairway add to the ascetic. To your left is the huge living/family room framed with enormous windows anchored by a fireplace leading to the screened in porch extending your living outdoors. The dining room is complete with charming original built-ins and flows naturally to your functional kitchen. The main level is complete with a rehabbed guest powder room and the two car attached garage with a new modern garage door and system. The second level has four spacious bedrooms, a very large primary bedroom, a brand new guest bathroom and a second full bathroom awaiting a new design. Don't miss the attic with drop down staircase that can be used for storage or future third floor expansion. The partially finished versatile lower level adds to your living space with room for a home office, a playroom, home gym and so much more. It also includes your laundry area and ample storage space with stairs providing access to the garage. A long list of improvements can be found on the drop down box including (2024) windows, lintels, door, tuck-pointing and (2022) roof, furnace, new lighting, installed can lighting, updated electrical outlets and so much more. Your home is located in the coveted Ravina area of Highland Park with easy access to Ravina Festival (1 mile) and all the amazing shops and restaurants of downtown Ravina (1.5 miles) and Highland Park (2 miles) within the award winning school districts of Braeside Elementary, Edgewood Middle School and Highland Park High School.
