Property Description
This classic registered Chicago Bungalow in North Mayfair is an ideal combination of beautiful original Arts and Crafts wood interior and a fully rebuilt second floor for modern living. Original hardwood floors are in good shape throughout the first floor and the unpainted original woodwork is in exquisite condition and is visually stunning. As with the Chicago Bungalow, the public space is generous with warm and spacious living room that focuses on the (faux) fireplace and mantle with original built-in glass-door cabinets and an adjacent separate dining room. On the first floor, there are two bedrooms, one with direct access to the rear sunroom. The kitchen features a fantastic vintage sink, maple floors and plenty of light and awaits a new owner's ideas and imprint. The second floor was completely rebuilt in 2009 with proper ceiling height and two additional bedrooms and an adjoining suite or family room currently used as yoga room, but ideal for a sitting room or enormous walk-in closet. There is a well appointed master bath and brand new hardwood floors throughout the addition. This is NOT a converted bungalow attic, it is a properly constructed and permitted 2nd floor, but it maintains the integrity of its certified Historic Chicago Bungalow status while offering a convenient private space properly cooled and heated with a separate zoned HVAC system. The sellers are the third owners of this well-cared for home, and have continued the tradition of maintaining and improving the house in the excellent example their predecessors. Recent noteworthy improvements include tear-off roof with the addition in 2009, new HVAC for upstairs and boiler for downstairs in 2009, and new concrete rear and front stairs and tuckpointing this year. The home also features a new full (2012) 2-car garage, and a large unfinished basement. The rear yard features a deck for outdoor hang-outs, and a well-maintained landscape. Located in the North Mayfair neighborhood of Albany Park, across the street from highly rated Palmer Elementary, the area is ideal for walking to everything including Gompers Park, the newly opening Target, LaBagh Woods, the North Branch Trail, shopping, dining and close to 90/94 and the Blue Line.
