Property Description

Stunning brick bungalow in the heart of South Shore offering 5 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and a 2-car garage. This beautifully updated home features a sun-filled open floor plan with refined finishes throughout. The main level showcases a seamless flow between the sitting room, living room, and dining area-ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The chef's kitchen is thoughtfully designed with 42" cabinetry, quartz countertops, tiled backsplash, and Samsung stainless steel appliances. Both the kitchen and laundry room are equipped with modern smart appliances for added convenience, and main-level laundry enhances everyday functionality. Cordless top-down/bottom-up blinds are installed throughout the living room, kitchen, and bedrooms, offering privacy and flexible natural light control. An open staircase leads to the fully finished basement, providing expansive additional living space perfect for a recreation room, guest suite, or home office. Upstairs, the private owner's suite features a spacious walk-in closet and a luxurious spa-inspired bath. Located near shopping, dining, Metra access, and outdoor recreation including Jackson Park Golf Course, with easy access to nearby museums and lakefront amenities. Recent updates include a new roof (also on the garage), gutters, and downspouts. Additional improvements include a new tankless water heater and a main furnace/AC system less than a year old. A pre-installed ADT security camera system adds an extra layer of comfort and security.
