North Chicago, IL 60064 1709 16th Street

This home is MUCH bigger than it looks. This lovely mid-century modern ranch features 4 large bedrooms, a spacious office, and 2 full bathrooms. The kitchen has new white cabinets and ceramic flooring for easy cleaning, plus all-new stainless steel appliances, while the gorgeous hardwood floors in the living room, dining room, and first-floor bedrooms have been beautifully refinished. There are two spacious bedrooms and a completely renovated full bathroom on the first floor, so there is plenty of room for Grandma. The second floor also has two huge bedrooms and a full bathroom (perfect for teenagers), and there is a large office in the lower level for those who wish to work from home. Most importantly, all of the utilities in the home have been brought up to code. The electrical service has new wiring throughout, and the furnace, central AC and water heater are new. But the real excitement starts in the lower level, where there is a huge family room with a built-in bar for weekend entertaining and/or weekday childcare. In addition to the entertainment area, there is also an office and a laundry room with a newer washer and dryer. Outside, the rear of the home is protected by a fence, which is ideal for containing children and pets. Attached to the rear of the home is a large deck (16 ft x 12 ft), perfect for entertaining in the summer. The property is surrounded by new, professional landscaping and an exterior entertainment area in the rear garden. There is a new asphalt driveway for parking 5 cars on the property. The home is in a quiet neighbourhood of established single-family homes, walking distance to the high school and the middle school. The home is conveniently located near public transportation, with the Metra train station nearby. Nothing to do but move in!
