About this home

Bright, welcoming, and filled with natural light, this move-in-ready brick split-level that sits on an exceptional (.32-acre) park-like lot along a beautiful tree-lined street in a desirable La Grange Park neighborhood. Lovingly maintained, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers comfortable living today with tremendous flexibility for the future, including room to expand the existing home or explore new-build possibilities on the exceptionally deep lot. Beautifully refinished oak hardwood floors (2026) enhance the main-level living and dining rooms and all three upper-level bedrooms. Oak casement windows, and original cove moldings bring warmth and character to the main living areas. The open main level provides an easy flow between the living room, dining room and kitchen; it is complemented with an entry closet and new lighting. Just a few steps down, the spacious finished lower-level family room offers exceptional flexibility for today's lifestyle. Beautiful large windows bring in abundant natural light, while wainscoting and newer carpeting (2023) create a warm, finished space with plenty of room for a home office, exercise area, play area or additional gathering space. The lower level also includes a convenient powder room and bright laundry room with new washer and dryer (2026). Step outside and you'll understand what makes this property special. The exceptionally deep backyard feels like a private park, with mature trees, established landscaping and an expansive lawn offering plenty of room for entertaining, gardening, play areas or simply relaxing outdoors. Behind the garage, a dedicated stone-pebble gathering area creates a natural setting for outdoor dining, picnics and summer entertaining. The peaceful setting attracts a variety of birds and provides a wonderful backyard retreat with remarkable space and possibilities. A newly blacktopped long driveway provides generous off-street parking and leads to the detached two-car garage with substantial extended workshop and storage space. A large freestanding storage shed provides even more functionality for gardening, outdoor equipment and seasonal storage. Additional highlights include generous attic and crawl-space storage, an updated electrical/circuit breaker panel (2021), and a waterproofed crawl space with moisture barrier, insulation, sump pump and French drain (2020). Enjoy the best of suburban living on Beach Avenue, a beautiful tree-lined residential street while remaining close to everyday conveniences, including Memorial and Robinhood Parks, area schools, the library, Salt Creek Trail, Brookfield Zoo, shopping, restaurants, grocery stores and Metra access.
