About this home
Classic all-brick expanded Cape Cod in desirable Norwood Park offering timeless charm, solid construction, and a flexible layout, situated on an oversized double lot providing exceptional outdoor space and future potential. This 2-story home features a convenient first-floor primary bedroom and full bath, providing comfortable everyday living. The second level includes two additional bedrooms, creating a practical layout with separation of space for family, guests, or a home office. Hardwood floors throughout under the carpet offer the opportunity to reveal beautiful natural flooring and enhance the home's character. A bright sunroom addition expands the living area and creates the perfect space to relax, work from home, or enjoy morning coffee while overlooking the expansive yard. Major mechanical updates provide peace of mind, including newer windows (approximately 5-10 years), roof replaced about 5 years ago, furnace approximately 10 years old, plus newer laundry appliances including washer (2026) and dryer (2025). The full basement includes a second full bathroom, adding valuable convenience and flexibility for recreation space, guests, or extended living. Located in sought-after Norwood Park, known for its tree-lined streets, strong community feel, and convenient access to parks, shopping, dining, and transportation into downtown Chicago. A rare opportunity to own a well-maintained home on a double lot in one of Chicago's most desirable residential neighborhoods.
