Refined design, generous space, and a coveted central location come together in this beautifully finished 3-story home offering over 6,000 square feet of living space. Bright and inviting, the dining room with a large picture window sets the scene for everything from holiday dinners to everyday moments. The living room offers a calm, comfortable setting with a wet bar, statement Travertine fireplace, and seamless flow to the kitchen. The kitchen blends style and function with a large island, high-end stainless appliances, a walk-in pantry, and adjacent mudroom. The primary suite is a serene escape with both a walk-in and dual closets, and a spa-like bath featuring marble-topped vanities, a glass-enclosed shower, and whirlpool tub. Two spacious bedrooms with generous closets share a full bath with dual granite vanity, and second-floor laundry adds everyday ease. The finished third-level attic offers two versatile, light-filled rooms well-suited as additional bedrooms, a home office, guest retreat, or game room, each with generous closet storage. The finished basement includes a bedroom, a full bath, a spacious rec room, and two storage rooms. Step outside to enjoy summer evenings and quiet mornings on the composite deck overlooking your beautifully landscaped, cedar-fenced yard. Thoughtfully constructed by a retired Chicago Fire Captain, this home features cement board siding with fire-rated protection, fireproof insulation, 5/8" drywall, 2x6 framing, dual electric panels, dual HVAC systems, and 9-foot deep pour basement ceilings. Recent updates include plush carpeting on the second and third levels (2025), a new sump pump (2025), water heater (2024), and zoned A/C (2023). Set in vibrant Norwood Park with easy access to the interstate, Metra, and Blue Line, and just minutes from parks, Starbucks, restaurants, downtown Edison Park, and more. Blending modern functionality with enduring quality, this home is the perfect place to create memories to last a lifetime.
