**Multiple offers received - sellers are asking for highest and best offers by 12PM on Wednesday, 1/21/2026.** So much to like about this updated 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath brick bungalow in northwest Forest Park. There have been lots of improvements since 2023 including new Marvin double hung windows, central air conditioning, high efficiency Bosch combination boiler/water heater, shaker kitchen cabinets with quartz countertops, Andersen storm door on side entrance, recovered awning on back of the house and garage door opener and springs. Most of the interior has been freshly painted within the last year. The large primary bedroom is filled with sunlight and has its own private bathroom with modern fixtures and ceramic tile heated flooring. The basement includes an office with closet (could easily be used as a guest bedroom), modern half-bath, rec room and laundry/storage room. Exposed brick walls and joists throughout most of the basement give the feeling of loft space and glass block windows let in lots of natural light. A large sliding barn style door separates the laundry/storage room from the rest of the basement. Removable partitions between the laundry and rec room offer flexibility should you desire to open up the basement space more. The basement includes a partial drain tile (in the office only) and a sump pump with battery back-up. Tons of storage space in the full, walk-up attic. Exterior features include a front brick paver sidewalk, blue stone walking paths, front porch, fenced in back yard, back patio and lots of perrenials. Very walkable location only a short distance to Madison Street in Forest Park, downtown Oak Park & River Forest, the Green Line "L" and Metra.
