Description

Come make this home your own before it's too late. Welcome home to this sunny, bright, and totally renovated Cape Cod in the heart of Sherwood Forest. Renovated by local rehabber, but so many vintage features preserved. Original hardwood flooring refinished, all new flooring in kitchen and baths, all new paint, doors, trim, casing, lighting fixtures. Flooded with natural light from all the brand new windows, all this sets the tone for your new home. Living room with large picture windows, separate den (which can be used as a dining room or 4th bedroom) with sliders out to the brand new deck and picturesque yard. First floor bedroom and full bathroom - updated with all new fixtures. The kitchen is what dreams are made of, with all new stainless steel appliances, marble counters, and a marble backsplash- plus room for a table! Upstairs, you will find the charm of a cape cod, with interesting lines, timeless built-ins, two bedrooms, and a gorgeous new bathroom. Finally, the basement is surprisingly large, with a finished rec room, and large utility room with ample storage. Gorgeous and DEEP backyard with large wooden deck, freestanding garden planters, area for a firepit, and a storage shed. Detached 2.5-car garage has all new drywall, electrical, and lighting. In addition to all of the wonderful cosmetic updates, this home features newer electrical, newer mechanicals, new driveway, both back and side deck are new, new washer and dryer, and so much more. Come fall in love today! A home warranty will be provided to the buyer at closing for added comfort. Coveted District 112 grade schools, including Sherwood Elementary School and Edgewood Middle School. A Sherwood Forest address also allows you to have a choice of Deerfield or Highland Park High School. Walking distance to Arbor Park and a short hop, skip, and jump from Downtown Highland Park and all of the business on Deerfield Road.
