About this home

This turn of the century Victorian in La Grange's historic district boasts old world charm with high ceilings, original woodwork, oak 5-panel & pocket doors with all of the modern amenities buyers are looking for. The foyer is open and bright and showcases the oak staircase that has a stained glass window. The antique fireplace is perfect in the cozy living room and has been converted to gas with a new line and gas logs. The stainless steel kitchen has an island and stainless range hood leads to a screened in back porch which is a perfect place for your morning coffee. Back stairwell takes you to the 4 upstairs bedrooms. The primary bedroom has a dressing area, built in storage and a cedar closet. The 4th bedroom has been converted into a laundry room but could easily be converted back. There is hardwood flooring throughout the main level and most of the 2nd story. The attic has been finished for a bonus space ideal for a workout room, kids playroom, or a potential primary suite. There is also additional attic space for storage. The large unfinished basement offers a second washer/dryer hook-up and tons of storage. This home has been lovely maintained and updated including rewired electric, new blown in insulation, radon mitigation system, new exterior paint, updated baths, new HVAC (2021) & roof (2022). All windows are newer also. The backyard has a paver patio and playset. Location is minutes from highly rated Cossitt Elementary and Lyons Township High School as well as the Stone Ave train station; downtown La Grange is just blocks away with restaurants, shopping and another train station. Seller would need a end of June or early July closing.
