About this home

Situated on an oversized lot on a tree-lined street in Montclare Gardens, this 3 bed/1.5 bath Dutch colonial exudes vintage charm and loads of potential. The very spacious first floor features arched doorways, a formal dining room with beautiful corner built-ins, a cozy living room with decorative fire place, a powder room perfect for guests, and a lovely eat-in kitchen which opens to the family room. All three bedrooms are on the second floor as well as a full bathroom. The retro basement has plenty of character complete with more built-in cabinets, a beautiful vintage bar, a workshop and even an extra shower. The garage is accessible via side driveway or alley and there is nice fenced back yard with large deck. Newer water heater and boiler! Excellent location near the border of Elmwood Park close to plenty of shopping, restaurants and public transportation. This one of a kind home is a must see in person in order to fully understand all the potential it has to offer!
