Property Description
This meticulously cared-for bungalow in Chicago's desirable Portage Park neighborhood blends vintage charm with modern comfort and versatile living spaces. A welcoming vintage foyer opens to a sun-drenched living room and formal dining room filled with natural light, both featuring original oak hardwood floors, while the kitchen showcases maple flooring. The updated kitchen (2021) features stylish cabinetry, a tile backsplash, and a walk-in pantry-perfect for everyday living or entertaining. The main floor includes a spacious primary bedroom and a second bedroom that opens to a bright, heated sunroom-an ideal spot for morning coffee, a cozy reading nook, a plant-filled retreat, or a cheerful home office. Spend summer evenings relaxing in the pool or unwinding with drinks on the deck, enhanced by outdoor Bose speakers and a two-car garage featuring a convenient "party door." The finished basement offers two bedrooms, new flooring throughout (2023), a summer kitchen, and its own private entry-easily used as a rental or Airbnb for extra income or multi-generational living. New 6-inch gutters were added in 2023, and the full attic remains blank, ready for your vision. Situated just minutes from the iconic 36-acre Portage Park-offering a pool, tennis courts, walking trails, and community events-and close to the bustling Six Corners district with its eclectic mix of shopping, dining, and neighborhood favorites, this home offers timeless character, thoughtful updates, and access to one of the Northwest Side's most vibrant communities. Excellent public transit options nearby include the CTA Blue Line, Metra, and multiple bus routes.
