About this home
This beautifully restored American Four-Square home in the heart of the Historic District combines old-world character with today's comforts. Inside, you'll be welcomed by a light-filled interior featuring refinished and new oak and maple hardwood floors (2023), 9-foot ceilings on the main floor, 8-inch base moldings, crown molding, arched doorways, and classic French doors throughout. The gracious foyer sets the tone with a stunning staircase that connects all levels of the home, leading into the formal living room with a picture window and the original fireplace. The formal dining room includes two sets of French doors-one leading to a charming home office with built-in bookshelves and a beamed ceiling, the other to a spacious family room featuring vaulted ceilings and ample space to relax or entertain. The updated kitchen (2021) boasts slate blue cabinetry, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a cozy coffee station with a decorative accent wall. A main-floor powder room and a large walk-in coat closet/pantry complete the first floor. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with dual closets, and a second bedroom with a fantastic tandem playroom-ideal for a nursery, study space, or creative studio. All bedrooms feature custom closet organizers for maximum efficiency. The updated hall bathroom includes a soaking tub/shower combo, furniture-style vanity, attached linen tower, and quartz countertops. The finished basement offers additional living space, including a spacious rec room, a dedicated laundry room, a mudroom with exterior access to the backyard, a fourth bedroom with a wall-to-wall closet and a second full bath with a walk-in shower. Step outside to enjoy a freshly painted exterior and new stucco (2023), a covered front porch, back porch with built-in planters and trellis, a large paver brick patio, concrete driveway, and a detached 2-car garage. Major updates include: new furnace (2025), new washer and dryer (2025), tankless water heater (2022), A/C unit (2021) and sump pump (2021). All of this in a prime walk-to-town, train, and schools location, within the Historic District and just steps from highly rated Cossitt Elementary, Park Jr. High, and Lyons Township High School.
