An expansive yard, lovely modern touches, spacious bedrooms, and a bright sunroom bring fresh appeal to this Chicago brick home on an impressive 49' x 124' lot.

The main level offers a large living room, formal dining room, open concept kitchen, bedroom, and full bathroom. Stretching 30 feet along the south side of the home, the sunroom offers abundant natural light, a welcoming retreat for relaxing and nurturing your favorite plants. Upstairs, two exceptionally spacious bedrooms include a primary bedroom with a large walk-in closet. Two additional hallway closets provide generous storage, with potential to explore converting one into an upstairs bathroom. The finished lower level adds versatility with a second kitchen, family room, two additional rooms, a full bathroom with a stand-up shower, laundry and utility areas, and separate exterior access. Whether you need related-living space, room for guests, a home office, or hobby space, there are options to explore. Outside, the extra wide yard offers room for gardening, entertaining, and enjoying the outdoors. Multiple entrances provide convenient access between the home and yard, and a detached 2.5 car garage completes the property. The longtime owner has continued to invest in the home, with improvements including the house roof (2020), garage roof and siding (2021), copper plumbing and lower-level bathroom improvements (2022), laundry and utility plumbing updates, New kitchen appliances (2026) and north-side mudroom/porch improvements with new wood stairs, siding, window, and screen door (2025). Previous tuckpointing to the sides of the building adds to the maintenance history.
