The story
- Basement
Welcome to this turn-key, beautifully renovated all-brick Edison Park bungalow with 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and roughly 2,274 square feet above grade - meticulously updated with fully permitted electrical, plumbing, and construction work (2022). The freshly painted exterior (2024) - crisp white masonry with black trim and professional landscaping - sets the tone for what's inside: a fully opened-up main level where the living room, dining area, and island kitchen flow together over gleaming oak hardwood floors, finished with custom blinds (2023) and designer lighting throughout. The kitchen features new white shaker cabinetry (2023), quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, updated stainless appliances (2023) including a gas range and French-door refrigerator, and a breakfast-bar island under statement lighting. A sunny family room opens through a new sliding glass door (2023) to the brand-new deck (2023) for effortless outdoor living. Vintage touches remain where they count: a stained-glass accent window and leaded-glass entry, with a practical mudroom bench at the door. Three beautifully updated full baths include a jetted whirlpool tub with travertine-look tile surround and a rain-shower bath on the main floor. Upstairs, a freshly carpeted retreat (2026) offers two bedrooms plus a flexible loft sitting area. The finished lower level adds a huge recreation room, office/exercise room, third full bath with walk-in tiled shower, and laundry with new washer and dryer (2025). Major structural peace of mind under the hood: new furnace, A/C condenser, boiler, and sump pump (2023), a clean cemented crawlspace (2025) with extensive storage, fresh chimney tuckpointing, many newer windows, and a new driveway (2022) leading to the 1.5-car garage - plus smart-home convenience with Wi-Fi-controlled lighting and smart locks. The location is truly unbeatable: two blocks from downtown Edison Park's dining scene and Metra station, and a short walk to downtown Park Ridge and Whole Foods.
