Now THIS is the type of property that makes you want to buy a house even when you already love where you live! Take advantage of this opportunity to buy and own this lovingly cared for 2 story brick house on the south side of Chicago. This house has wonderfully durable hardwood floors throughout the main level and second floor, aside from the kitchen and bathroom floors. On the main level you walk into a large LR connected to the DR and open to the kitchen. The second floor has 3 large bedrooms and an updated bathroom with a walk in shower. The basement is recently remodeled with a large family/game room. There is also a brand new bathroom with a walk in shower, laundry room and a walk in pantry/closet where you can neatly tuck things away. Wait....there is MORE....outside of the dining room you step out into your own private resort!! There is a soothing and relaxing pond that recycles the water through a pump in this amazing yard. Trust me, the pictures do not do it enough justice. Quiet block, easily accessible to major streets and expressways. Come onnnnnn down, you could be the winner.
