CHECK THIS OUT!! This stone & stucco Highland Park twin is bound to turn some heads. you won't be disappointed! S Lynn Blvd is a wide, recently blacktopped & quiet street that dead ends into Arlington Ave, which only goes one way. so,, for sure, the "road less traveled'. Not only that, but there are only 4 sets of twin homes on all of the three blocks of S. Lynn, and it's THE ONLY set of twins in the 200 block, so parking is not an issue at all. All the other houses are singles, many of them large. More good news! This home shows off a long, PRIVATE, blacktopped driveway for 4-5 cars, and part of the driveway is gated. You wont find these amenities in many places in the general area. Take note of the outdoor lighting, the mulched flower beds in front with colorful flowers to enjoy, & a lamppost near the sidewalk.
