A true treasure, this classic stone and brick 1940s home is nestled on a tree-lined street in the highly sought-after Edgebrook neighborhood. Lovingly cared for by the same family for 52 years, this home is filled with timeless character, including arched doorways, original built-ins, and beautiful architectural details throughout.The bright living room features a bay window and a classic wood-burning fireplace with a custom mantel. The formal dining room opens through French doors to a rare breakfast room and kitchen. A second French door leads to a charming three-season room surrounded by windows, offering peaceful views of the backyard.The main level also includes three generous sized bedrooms and a full bath. The basement is full of vintage charm, featuring original knotty pine paneling, a checkered floor, and a spacious recreation room. You'll also find a second full bath, laundry room with the original deep utility sink, workshop, and plenty of storage with built-in shelving. A true showstopper is the oversized unfinished attic. With soaring angled ceilings, paneled walls, and original pine floors that evoke the feel of a Northwoods cottage, this incredible space, not seen very often, is truly special. Whether you envision a spacious primary suite, additional bedrooms, a playroom, home office, or creative studio, the possibilities are endless. Outside, enjoy a large partially fenced backyard with a brick paver patio, space for gardening, and a one-car garage with access from both the alley and driveway. Conveniently located and walkable to Edgebrook School, neighborhood shops and restaurants, the Metra, Caldwell Woods, and with easy access to I-90/94, downtown Chicago, and O'Hare, this well-loved home is ready for its next owners to make it their own. **This home features HW floors beneath the existing carpeting which has been in place for 50+ years. Pictures virtually staged to showcase that potential.
