Nestled under a captivating canopy in a stellar spot in the coveted Grant High School district, surrounded by historic homes and lush gardens, situated just a short stroll to Irving Park. Plus, a gloat-worthy commute to everywhere you want to go! Elevated off the street, the front lawn is a private oasis with sunlight filtered through the trees; people-watch from the privacy of your sheltered front porch. Enter the lovely living room and imagine evenings by the fire. The fireplace and chimney just got repaired and a stamp of approval. Many original features have been retained, such as the oak flooring, dining room corner built-in and French paned front windows, while updates, including the dining room French doors, tuned-up High Efficiency Gas Furnace & Central AC, PEX plumbing, water line and bathroom vanity make it shine. The quaint bathroom marries old and new, with a freshly refinished original tub and hexagonal tile floor. This very special fermette, a petite French country style cottage with storybook notes, has great flow, a spacious primary bedroom (bring your king, it will fit!), as well as a true 2nd bedroom that is great for a home office, guest or kiddo -- both on the main level! Rare indeed in a petite maison to have a dedicated dining room and a roomy remodeled kitchen with a farm style apron sink, quartz countertops, recessed and task lighting, stainless steel appliances, including a gas range and even a microwave - making meal prep a pleasure.
