Property Description

Updated 1909 farmhouse that balances preserved character with practical upgrades, offering 6 bedrooms, 2 fully renovated baths with premium Kohler fixtures, and a layout that supports both single-level living and full household flexibility. Originally configured as a two-flat, the home presents a rare opportunity for multi-unit conversion as zoning allows, adding long-term versatility beyond its current single-family use. The main floor includes two spacious bedrooms and a full bath, while the second level adds four additional bedrooms, a second updated bath, and access to a rooftop balcony with open views toward Park Ridge Country Club. Recent restoration work completed from 2021 to today reflects consistent investment, including all-new windows, doors, lighting, cherry railings, wide trim, wainscoting, and beautifully restored original hardwood floors, along with an updated kitchen featuring high-end stainless steel appliances. A full unfinished basement provides clear expansion potential for added living space or storage, while the detached two-car garage and large yard with a new bluestone patio, additional patio space, and refreshed landscaping extend usability outdoors. Location supports daily convenience with close proximity to Uptown, Metra access, and all three major expressways, positioning this as a strong option for buyers prioritizing space, condition, flexibility, and long-term usability.
