This warm, welcoming home is a short stroll to many of Oak Park's finest attractions; Scoville Park, the main library, restaurants, shops, Cheney Mansion, the Farmers Market, Ridgeland Commons, Austin Gardens, theaters, house museums, and schools. The Metra train and the L-trains are conveniently nearby for work commutes, adventures in the city, or to catch a plane at the airports. Return home to relax on your gracious front porch in a friendly, neighborly block that is in the midst of the Frank Lloyd Wright and Prairie School of Architecture District. The Queen Anne architecture opens to a Prairie influenced living room, with warm quarter sawn oak doors, window trim, staircase and a wood burning fireplace/stove that is encased in built in bookshelves under stained glass windows. Through open pocket doors is the formal dining room, professionally decorated with Bradbury and Bradbury wallpapers. French doors lead to a sunny family room, with a built-in desk, bookshelves, storage, and a powder room. The well functioning kitchen provides plenty of storage space. Walk up the Prairie style staircase to the second floor's four bedrooms and full bathroom. On the third floor is a double-office space with tree-top views, that is perfect for working from home and overseeing homework. Or utilize the space as an en-suite fifth bedroom, with an abundance of storage closets, and an adjoining full tub/shower bathroom. In the basement is a finished room for recreation and a full bathroom with a shower stall. The unfinished basement space houses the boiler, laundry room with oversized front-loading washer and dryer and laundry sink, and central air-conditioning equipment. Landscaping in the front and back yards was professionally designed and lovingly maintained. In addition to the 2.5 car garage there is a fenced in outdoor parking space that can also be used as a patio. Purchase while the leaves fall and move in for the Holidays!
