Located just steps from schools and Springdale Park, this home offers the ultimate in convenient, one-level living. The main floor features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, gorgeous hardwood floors, fresh paint, and a cozy fireplace. Downstairs, the finished basement provides incredible flexible space for a rec room, play area, overnight guests, a second fireplace, and ample storage. Complete with a private outdoor retreat, this home perfectly blends comfort and lifestyle. Selling as is. Sewer backup effecting many local residents and not flowing to the street caused damage to the basement, the sump pump was remedied. New owners can make the space their own, whether it's carpet, LVF, or hard wood. ## Location - **Address:** 5301 Franklin Avenue, Western Springs, IL 60558 - **County:** Cook - **Coordinates:** 41.793638, -87.894494 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=41.793638,-87.894494 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Kathryn Blaine Puffenberger - **Brokerage:** Baird & Warner - **Broker Phone:** (708) 354-7355 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/5301-Franklin-Ave_Western-Springs_IL_60558_M86082-30738?f=listhub&s=MREDIL&m=12775322&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f1768233033r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f2183391266r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f3386033876r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f2302954456r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f1787040897r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f3859162770r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f984649980r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f293551859r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f2629330339r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f1846604060r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f2190567739r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f1618688690r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f1139625105r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f3526600759r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f391413528r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f2783139404r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f2397923399r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f3207770189r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f1206261060r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f1615344582r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f1628358979r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f68822628r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f3565174160r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f3565174160r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f3370024196r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f2110835197r.jpg) ![5301 Franklin Avenue - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/ac0394c419bd258db8f94d64aa2b1e0fl-f1740610571r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 12775322 | **Updated:** 2026-10-24 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Midwest Real Estate Data, LLC.
