Morning coffee overlooking the wooded backyard, an afternoon on the nearby forest preserve trails, and village events just minutes from home. Set on 0.71 beautifully landscaped acres, this Palos Park ranch offers a peaceful setting close to walking and horseback riding trails, the village's main gathering area, and Northwestern Hospital. The train station is right down the street for convenient trips into Chicago. At home, the beautiful three-tiered back deck, installed in 2025 with a built-in gardening area, creates an inviting place to dine, entertain, or unwind beneath the trees. Recent improvements include the main home's furnace, central air, and Aprilaire system in 2025, a 2025 driveway with paver walkways and garage apron and 2025 gutters with leaf guards. Brand-new Radon mitigation system. The family room's separate furnace and A/C were replaced in 2022. Newer windows and sliding doors, a Navien instant-heat water heater, and a 2023 storage shed add to the home's appeal. Inside, original hardwood floors extend throughout most of the main level, which includes three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a powder room. The primary bedroom has an updated private bath and compact walk-in closet, while a main-level laundry closet with a stacked washer and dryer adds convenience. The remodeled kitchen features custom hickory cabinetry, a comfortable table area, glass-front lighted upper cabinets, and under-cabinet lighting.
