Property Description

Under construction (Coming Soon) pictures of previous home in the area built by the same builder. Stunning totally regutted-rehabbed Chicago bungalow completed with full city permits and approvals. Property located in highly sought after Eastern part of Portage Park known for its historic, 38-acre park with an Olympic-size pool, sports facilities and its walking distance from the home. The builder has completed numerous bungalow rehabs throughout Chicago's North Side,with a philosophy focused on preserving the original historic design while upgrading each home to today's latest standards and trends. By maintaining the existing structure-often stronger and better built than new construction-this home was reimagined using modern exterior materials and energy-efficient systems to deliver the look, comfort, and performance buyers expect in a new home. This residence represents the pride and craftsmanship of the builder's work and is designed for the next homeowner to feel the same. Offering over 3,000 square feet of finished living space, this home lives like new construction. The open-concept main level features nearly 10' ceilings, custom accent walls and ceiling details, wide staircases with custom railings, solid-core interior doors, and 3" hardwood flooring throughout the main and second floors. The chef's kitchen showcases custom cabinetry with LED under-cabinet lighting, a 10' oversized island with quartz countertops and waterfall edges, full quartz backsplash, and high-end appliances. A first-floor bedroom or private office with full bath, large mudroom, and expansive living and dining areas with fireplace complete the main level. The full second-floor addition includes three large bedrooms, a dedicated laundry room, and a luxurious primary suite retreat featuring its own fireplace, walk-in shower, freestanding tub, Toto Washlet toilet, and multiple walk-in closets. Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath with individual sinks. A second furnace services the upper level, with sound-insulated walls for added comfort. The fully finished lower level offers 7'6" ceilings, a bedroom with oversized walk-in closet, full bath, second laundry room, family room with wet bar and fireplace, new LVP flooring, drain tile system, overhead plumbing, and spray-foam insulation for enhanced sound control and energy efficiency. Extensive upgrades include dual HVAC systems with Nest thermostats, tankless water heater, all-new plumbing with copper water lines and PVC drains, new 1.5" copper water service, 200-amp electrical service, high-efficiency Climate Guard windows, Hardie Board siding with capped windows and doors, new aluminum soffits and gutters, new concrete sidewalks and front stoop, new Trex deck, and a new roof on both the home and garage. The fully updated garage features Hardie siding, new roof, new door and opener, and is EV-ready with a dedicated circuit. Additional highlights include three fireplaces, Ring doorbells, abundant recessed lighting, custom trim throughout, and foam-insulated drain lines for superior sound control.
