About this home
This exquisitely updated residence, inspired by the timeless elegance of French Normandy architecture, proves there's no place like home. Perfectly situated in North Oak Park's coveted William Hatch School District, this impeccably cared-for property offers the ideal blend of storybook charm and modernization all in one of the village's most picturesque and welcoming neighborhoods. From the moment you arrive, the home's curb appeal makes an impression, with its stately design, cobblestone details, and beautifully manicured landscaping. Step inside to find a freshly painted interior and expansive, light-filled living spaces that make both everyday living and entertaining a joy. The large formal living room, centered around a striking fireplace, flows seamlessly into a generous dining room-ideal for hosting everything from holiday dinners to casual gatherings with friends. At the heart of the home lies a chef's dream kitchen, thoughtfully updated with radiant cobblestone floors, a stainless steel farmhouse sink, high-end appliances including a Wolf range, sub-zero fridge, and a welcoming breakfast bar. Adjacent to the kitchen is a cozy breakfast room for morning coffee and a first-floor family room featuring a second fireplace-the perfect spot to unwind after a long day. Upstairs, four bedrooms include a luxurious primary suite with a double vanity and walk-in shower, a junior suite ideal for guests or older children, and two additional well-appointed bedrooms. Newly refinished hardwood floors add warmth and beauty throughout the upper level. The finished basement offers abundant space with carpeting, a large recreation room, a spacious laundry area, dedicated office or flex space, and substantial storage and utility areas. This high-and-dry lower level adds incredible functionality to an already generous floor plan. Outside, enjoy a private backyard oasis featuring a peaceful fountain, cobblestone patio, newer landscaping, a lawn sprinkling system, and a two-car brick garage. Additional upgrades include a newer boiler, newer central heating and cooling systems, dramatic exterior lighting, and a backup generator for peace of mind. Located just moments from parks, local coffee shops, dining, and transportation, this home offers not only space and style but also a true sense of community. With its architectural pedigree, thoughtful updates, and unbeatable North Oak Park location, this is a rare opportunity to own a home where timeless character meets modern living.
