About this home
** ATTRACTIVE & AFFORDABLE ** A great opportunity to enjoy all that River Forest has to offer and then some! This spacious two-bedroom, one-bath condominium is ideal for a first-time buyer, someone looking to downsize, or an investor seeking a conveniently located property near area colleges and public transportation. Hardwood flooring flows throughout the generously sized living room, L-shaped dining area, hallway, and both bedrooms. The flexible dining area could also serve as a comfortable home office, while the inviting eat-in kitchen provides plenty of room for everyday dining. The kitchen features brand-new luxury vinyl flooring and stainless steel appliances, including a new stove (September 2026) and a newer microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator. The bright bathroom has also been refreshed with a new vanity. The well-maintained building offers convenient laundry facilities and additional storage. One deeded parking space is included. The outstanding location places you just two blocks from the Metra, approximately six blocks from the Harlem Green Line station, and close to Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Jewel-Osco, coffee shops, and trendy bakeries. Vibrant Downtown Oak Park, with its abundance of dining, shopping, theater, comedy, and cafes, is only minutes away. Further enhancing this exceptional location is access to three highly rated schools: Lincoln Elementary School, Roosevelt Middle School, and Oak Park and River Forest High School. Clean, polished, and move-in ready, this condo provides a great opportunity to become part of a wonderful community or add a well-located property to your investment portfolio.
