About this home

Welcome to 515 Highland Avenue, a picture-perfect blend of timeless Oak Park charm and modern craftsmanship. Set on a tree-lined street surrounded by classic homes, this beautifully renovated residence has been completely reimagined from top to bottom, offering the comfort and style of new construction while preserving the inviting character Oak Park is known for. From the moment you arrive, the home's fresh Hardie Board siding, new roof, windows, and inviting front porch create stunning curb appeal. Step inside to find an open and airy layout that has been thoughtfully redesigned for today's lifestyle, featuring five bedrooms and four full bathrooms across three fully finished levels. The main floor welcomes you with bright natural light and seamless flow between the living, dining, and kitchen spaces, creating the perfect environment for both everyday living and entertaining. The large chef's kitchen is the centerpiece of the home, complete with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, designer tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a generous island ideal for gatherings. A convenient main-level bedroom and full bath make the floor plan flexible for guests, home office use, or multigenerational living. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with a spa-inspired bath with heated floors and a walk-in closet. Every detail, from tile selections to fixtures and trim, reflects thoughtful design and quality workmanship. The additional bedrooms share a beautifully finished full bath and enjoy ample closet space and natural light throughout. The fully finished lower level offers even more living space, featuring a large recreation room, a dry bar, a full bathroom, a newly added sump pump, and extra flex space perfect for a playroom, home gym, or office. Outside, enjoy brand-new landscaping with an irrigation system, a brick paver patio and walkway, and the newly added front porch, which enhances both curb appeal and everyday enjoyment. A two-car heated garage wired for an EV charger completes this exceptional property. Located just moments from highly rated Oak Park schools, neighborhood parks, shopping, and dining with easy access to the highway and public transit, this home delivers the perfect balance of comfort, convenience, and community.
