Welcome to this beautifully maintained, 100-year-old registered historic bungalow nestled in the heart of vibrant West Ridge. With timeless character and thoughtful modern updates, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home offers the perfect blend of vintage charm and everyday comfort. Step inside to find custom-painted interiors and original hardwood floors throughout, complemented by abundant natural light and generous room sizes. The main level features two large bedrooms with spacious closets, a full bath, and a wide central hallway that leads you into a formal dining room and updated kitchen. The kitchen boasts a brand-new range and hood, a one-year-old refrigerator, a three-year-old dishwasher, and professionally refaced cabinetry. A standout feature of the main floor is the stunning and unique back room-accessible from both the kitchen and rear bedroom. With vaulted ceilings, exposed brick, original hardwood floors, and custom window frames, this space offers endless possibilities as a den, studio, or sunroom. Upstairs, you'll find a full master suite retreat with eastern and western exposure, hardwood flooring, a ceramic-tiled bathroom, a claw foot cast iron tub, a custom built in stand alone shower with marble tile and a floating shower door, one of a kind wood vanity with honed granite and double sinks and a very spacious walk-in closet. Mechanically updated and move-in ready, the home includes a new boiler (2023), central AC (2020), and water heater (2020). The exterior has been meticulously cared for with a one-year-old backyard fence, a beautifully landscaped yard, and recent updates including a new front fascia board and front eaves (2024), and gutters replaced in 2020 (garage and most of the house). A one-car garage completes the property, and the unfinished basement-with high ceilings-offers, a half bath, abundant storage and future expansion potential. The house is located on a one way zoned street and is steps from restaurants, groceries and transportation. Resources are abundant with Warren Park, West Ridge Nature Preserve and Robert Black Golf Course less than a mile away. The new Ridge/Peterson Metra station is less than one mile away and the Western Bus is blocks from the front door. Andersonville and Edgewater are also minutes away as well. This home lacks neither light nor space and presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Chicago history with all the comforts of modern living.
