Agent Description

Full two-story home in the highly sought-after Highland Park neighborhood, known for its charming tree-lined streets and unbeatable location. Enjoy exceptional walkability just a few blocks from grocery stores, restaurants, golf courses, parks, and everyday conveniences, with quick access to both downtowns. Located near local favorites including The Nook, Cretin-Derham Hall, Highland National Golf Course, and Oxendale’s Market, this location offers the perfect blend of neighborhood charm, convenience, and community.

Situated on a desirable corner lot, the home is filled with natural light and timeless character, featuring beautiful hardwood floors throughout, classic arched entryways, a gas fireplace, and a striking new front door. The functional layout offers three bedrooms on one level plus convenient main-level living. Two vintage full bathrooms add charm and character, while replacement windows throughout enhance efficiency and comfort.

Outside, enjoy a quiet, peaceful backyard retreat complete with extensive patios, a storage shed, and the rare bonus of a two-car garage. Major updates provide peace of mind, including new roof and siding, two Weil-McLain boilers, and central air conditioning.

With only a small amount of finishing left in the lower level, this home offers tremendous upside potential and the opportunity to add additional finished living space while building equity. A rare opportunity in one of Highland Park’s most desirable neighborhoods. Opportunities like this don’t come along often.
