Fall in love with this completely updated, solid brick ranch in an absolutely wonderful location! No expense was spared by the current, long term owners in updating this home from top (including the roof/garage roof) to bottom (including the beautifully finished basement) approximately six years ago. You'll love the modern kitchen with professionally installed, upscale kitchen cabinets, gorgeous granite counters, extra deep under mount kitchen sink and stainless steel appliances that were all part of the same renovation. The open floorplan allows in lots of natural light. All windows, main floor interior doors, recessed lighting, washer/dryer, flooring, mechanicals, INCLUDING the furnace and A/C were updated six years ago, as well. The primary bedroom offers the convenience of having its own half bath. The full bathroom was also tastefully renovated a mere six years ago. Imagine relaxing in the den while reading a book and cozying up to the lovely gas fireplace. This room could also easily double as a 4th bedroom, guest room or serene office. The enormous, bright, clean basement has recessed lighting and easy maintenance vinyl laminate flooring, not to mention tons of storage space! The large corner lot is lovingly adorned with perennial flowers and the private, fenced yard (newer fence, of course) is complete with a detached 2 1/2 car garage. Old Orchard Mall, Niles North High School, the Edens Expressway, public transportation and many dining/shopping opportunities are all EXTREMELY close by! Home is in excellent condition, however, being conveyed "As-Is". If you've been searching for an updated ranch home in a fantastic location, your search has just ended!
