Property Description
Classic bungalow charm meets a fresh, modern interior in this beautifully renovated Norwood Park home, offering four bedrooms, three full bathrooms and three levels of living space. Large windows fill the living room with natural light, highlighting the beautifully refinished oak floors that continue into the separate dining room. An open staircase connects the dining room to the second floor, adding architectural interest while keeping the space bright and inviting. The fully remodeled kitchen features custom wood cabinetry, quartz countertops and stainless steel LG appliances. Just beyond, a sunny, heated four seasons room offers the perfect spot for morning coffee, casual dining or an additional sitting area overlooking the backyard. Upstairs is all about flexibility, with vaulted ceilings, generous closet space, a remodeled full bath and an oversized storage room. Currently configured as two bedrooms, this level can accommodate a bedroom and home office or potentially be opened up by removing the dividing wall to create a spacious primary suite. It's a versatile space designed to fit your lifestyle today and adapt as your needs change. The finished lower level offers even more possibilities, with a spacious family room perfect for movie nights, a game area, home office or workout space. A third remodeled full bath, separate laundry room with a new washer, dryer and utility sink, additional storage and exterior access complete this level. Extensive improvements include new windows and doors, roof and gutters, electrical panel and wiring, copper plumbing upgrades, a new boiler and water heater, plus five Carrier mini split units for zoned heating and cooling. Outside, enjoy a newly sodded backyard, new fence and a two car garage with a new roof and garage doors opening to both the alley and yard, a great bonus for outdoor entertaining. Conveniently located near parks, shopping, dining, public transportation and expressway access. Beautifully refreshed and ready for its next chapter!

Explore Norwood Park
An abundantly green north side Chicago neighborhood, Norwood Park boasts strong community ties and is filled with fantastic older residences that are ideal for raising a family. Norwood Park resists the typical Chicago grid system in favor of more winding roads. Along these curving drives, homebuyers will find a wonderful variety of properties. Nineteenth-century houses, Cape Cods, ranches, condominiums and new construction developments sum up the real estate opportunities, which fall in just as broad a range of prices. The neighborhood features a small, yet satisfying assortment of dining options within its borders and there is even a unique boutique or two. When it comes to nightlife in Norwood Park, pubs are it. Neighborhood regulars meet up for whatever is on tap and a bit of that community bonding.
