NEW PRICE! NEARLY 3,000 SQ FT (APPROX. 2,821) ACROSS FOUR FINISHED LEVELS - room for everyone and everything! Completely rehabbed in 2026, this classic American Foursquare in Chicago's Austin neighborhood pairs 1911 character with turnkey living: 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths and all the big-ticket items already done - NEW ROOF, ALL-NEW SIDING, NEW WINDOWS, NEW FURNACE, NEW WATER HEATER and central air. Step through the wrought iron gate onto the welcoming front porch. Inside, a sunlit 13x16 living room flows to a 12x16 formal dining room made for holiday dinners, and the updated eat-in kitchen shines with white shaker cabinetry, granite countertops and BRAND-NEW STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCES - refrigerator, range and microwave - to be installed before closing. Upstairs, the 14x12 primary suite has its own full bath, plus two more bedrooms. The finished third level is a showstopper - a massive 15x32 bedroom/bonus space for a guest suite, home office, playroom or studio. The finished walkout lower level adds a huge 11x21 family room, an additional bedroom, a full bath, separate exterior access and a laundry room with a NEW WASHER & DRYER coming before closing. Luxury vinyl flooring, recessed lighting and modern fixtures throughout. Outside: a fully fenced yard with wrought iron fencing front and back, ready for cookouts and backyard fun, plus a 2.5-car garage off the alley. Close to parks, schools, shopping, the CTA Green Line, Metra and I-290. THE SELLER IS READY TO SELL and open to credits toward your closing costs (subject to lender guidelines). Schedule your private showing today! Note: kitchen appliances and washer/dryer are digitally rendered in select photos; new appliances will be installed before closing.
