Property Description

** Multiple Offers Received. Highest and Best Deadline is 11:00 am on Monday, April 15th. ** Quintessential Oak Park Gunderson with tons of updates on a tree lined street and in a terrific location beckons! Arrive onto the generous, inviting front porch and into the welcoming foyer that leads to the sprawling first floor that's perfect for today's living and entertaining. Gather with loved ones in the spacious living room, boasting soaring ceilings and tall bright windows that bring in plenty of light. The adjoining dining room can easily host your largest holiday gatherings, and has line of sight to the kitchen for easy entertaining. Cooking your gourmet meals is an absolute delight in the 2017 designer, bright kitchen featuring quality cabinetry; quartz countertop; updated lighting; all stainless high end appliances including an induction cooktop, built in oven, microwave, two dishwashers, compactor and wide counter depth fridge; deep sink and a huge eat-at island for casual breakfasts, snacks and homework. The kitchen opens to the roomy first floor family room where loved ones will gather for movie or game night - guaranteeing you'll never miss a moment of the action! A handy drop zone off the kitchen, a large deck that connects to the family room and a convenient powder room round out this level. When it's time to retire, head upstairs to find five generous bedrooms. The second floor showcases four spacious, sunny bedrooms (two of which can fit king-sized beds!) featuring tall windows and ample storage, a classic newer full bath as well as the oh-so-convenient second floor laundry! The third floor is perfect for your primary retreat and boasts a sizable bedroom, an updated ensuite full bath and brand new carpet! The roomy, dry lower level offers even more space - use as a playroom, second family room or as a long-term guest room with its own full bath, loads of storage and even a supplemental laundry location. Al-fresco living and entertaining is a dream in this home - the huge front porch is ideal to sip wine and watch the world go by and catch up with neighbors; the large back deck is great for easy grilling and hosting BBQs; two patios for additional entertaining; a playset that's every child's dream and and a wide, sunny, fenced yard for growing veggies or flowers. A convenient newer two-car garage is also on premises, but who needs cars when you are close to everything Oak Park offers. So much original charm - pocket door, multiple stained glass windows; and so many newer updates in this home - two-years-new roof, zoned heating and cooling, siding, all replacement windows, baths, garage, rebuilt front porch, deck, poured patio and walkway, newer kitchen, custom window treatments, updated lighting and more. Incredible location - steps to shopping, grocery, restaurants, coffee, schools, parks, library, pool, Blue line, an easy drive to the expressway and lots more. This is the turn-key home on one of the friendliest blocks you've been waiting for - all you have to do is unpack, settle in and enjoy summer. Welcome home!
