Property Description

OVER 3300 SQFT of Living Space including the basement. The Forest Glen House you have been waiting for! Tucked away in one of Chicago's most coveted enclaves, this enchanting mid-century stone Cape Cod home offers an extraordinary blend of timeless charm, thoughtful design, and serene natural surroundings. Located in the heart of the highly sought-after Forest Glen, this home sits on a lush, tree-lined lot adjacent directly to the Forest Glen Nature Preserve, offering a rare sense of seclusion and tranquility, right in the city. As you approach, the classic stone exterior evokes a sense of permanence and character, seamlessly blending with the canopy of mature trees that frame the property. Inside, the home opens to a sun-drenched living room, where large picture windows invite in soft natural light and frame picturesque views of the green surroundings with the fireplace adding warmth and ambiance. The kitchen is a true classic, with rich oak cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a custom tile backsplash. Adjacent is a formal dining space that flows effortlessly for gatherings, whether intimate or grand. Staying on the main level, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms and a full bathroom, offering comfortable accommodations for family or guests. At the heart of the home, the inviting family room exudes rustic charm, featuring a stunning stone fireplace, exposed wooden beams, and a built-in bar. Perfect for entertaining or relaxing. A set of doors leads from the family room to a curated outdoor patio, a private retreat ideal for enjoying a morning coffee or hosting under the stars. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a peaceful escape, complete with its own full bath, skylights for added brightness and views of the treetops beyond. The home also features a full unfinished basement with a third full bathroom, providing endless possibilities for additional living space, storage, or a custom build-out to suit your lifestyle. Completing the property is a 2.5-car detached garage situated along the alley, true to classic Chicago style, offering ample parking and storage. Surrounded by nature yet minutes from the city, this is a rare opportunity to own a home that feels like a private sanctuary, nestled within one of the most desirable neighborhoods on the Northwest Side. Discover the quiet beauty of Forest Glen. Where nature, character, and comfort converge.
