Property Description

Classic Chicago brick bungalow offering timeless character, thoughtful updates, and an exceptional Albany Park location. Tucked away on a quiet one-way residential street, this 5-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on a wide 30 x 125 ft lot and beautifully blends original architectural details with modern updates. Built in 1921, the home retains its original woodwork, stained glass, hardwood floors, built-in features, and a beautiful brick fireplace with custom built-ins. The sun-filled living room features an impressive span of windows, creating a warm and inviting space. The separate dining room flows into a distinctive kitchen with imported Mexican tile, turquoise cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a generous pantry-a rare and charming feature. Three bedrooms and an updated full bath are located on the second level, including a spacious primary bedroom. The second-floor bath features marble and white stone finishes, while the main floor offers two additional bedrooms, a full bath, office, and welcoming foyer. A finished basement adds flexible living or bedroom space, along with laundry and the potential to add a third bathroom. The fully fenced and recently landscaped backyard is ideal for entertaining and summer gatherings, with a patio and fire pit. A detached 2-car garage provides convenience and additional storage. One of the home's standout features is its location directly across from the North Branch riverfront trail and River Park, offering immediate access to walking and biking paths, a dog park, community pool, playground, and expansive green space. The Brown Line is approximately 0.4 miles away, with convenient highway access within 2 miles. Close to neighborhood dining, shopping, parks, and transportation, this is a special opportunity to experience the best of Albany Park and Chicago's Northwest Side.
