About this home
Welcome to this charming and spacious raised ranch nestled in one of the friendliest neighborhoods in the south suburbs of Chicago. This well-maintained home offers approximately 2,000 square feet of finished living space, perfect for comfortable living. Step inside to discover a bright, inviting interior featuring beautiful blonde oak hardwood floors throughout-recently sanded, finished, and stained for a fresh, timeless look. The kitchen boasts new luxury vinyl plank flooring, while the entire home has been freshly painted to create a modern, move-in-ready feel. The standout recently renovated bathroom is a true highlight: enjoy a stylish tiled stand-up shower, granite vanity, sleek modern tiled flooring, a convenient laundry chute, and a newly installed bathroom heater for added comfort. Energy efficiency is a priority here, with a 2010 energy-efficient furnace, newer roof, newer water heater, newer double-pane windows to help reduce utility bills, and updated copper plumbing (2013) delivering strong water pressure with very low lead levels. Outside, this flower lover's dream awaits with a vibrant, expansive garden teeming with plants that attract local birds and wildlife. The fully fenced backyard provides privacy and plenty of space for outdoor enjoyment. (Flowers include-Hostas, tulips, daffodils, hyacinths, peonies, clematis, bearded Iris's, Grape Hyacinths, hollyhocks, lily trees, sweet williams, shasta diasies, allium flowers, star gazers, day lilies, snap dragons, moss roses, and more! Ask your agent to see the full list in the additional documents). Location is unbeatable-just a few blocks to Millennium Park (a fantastic community gem featuring a 0.4-mile walking path, Moss Memorial Garden, splash pad, soccer field, roller hockey rink, playground with picnic shelter and BBQ grills, plus the Nardoni Memorial Garden). Everyone will appreciate being in the highly regarded Homewood-Flossmoor High School district, a three-time National Blue Ribbon School winner (1983, 1996, 2002), recognizing exceptional student achievement, teaching quality, and community engagement-one of the highest honors a U.S. school can receive. Commuting is effortless with nearby Metra train station access and major highways. Nature enthusiasts will love the close proximity to the Irons Oaks Environmental Learning Center, a 38-acre preserve offering hiking trails, excellent bird and butterfly watching, and free environmental programs (check the park district website for schedules). Golf lovers are minutes from Ravisloe Country Club, a premier public course designed by Donald Ross-ranked #1 among Illinois classic courses and around #10 overall for public-access courses in the state (per Golfweek).
