Charming 3 story Victorian on a lovely lot in a spectacular location within blocks of several parks, both commuter trains, all of the fabulous shops and restaurants in the Main/Chicago corridor and a short distance to the lakefront beaches and bike paths. This home has been lovingly maintained and continually updated by this owner of almost 30 years. Beautiful oak woodwork, a very special stained glass panel, and a decorative period fireplace grace the first floor. The kitchen has oak cabinets, granite counters, new flooring, and an eating bar. A generous foyer and full bath complete the first floor. The second floor has 3 good-sized bedrooms and a large full bath. The third floor is the 4th bedroom, and was created out of 3 small rooms so it has lots of space for the lucky occupants. The basement is unfinished, but is clean and pleasant for laundry/storage/and more. There is forced air heat with central air on the 1st and 2nd floors; the 3rd floor has electric baseboard heat and a window a/c unit. Almost every window in the house has been replaced. Newer roof and furnace. The garage was built in 1994 and the alley is paved. The fully fenced yard is very large and full of sunshine for the gardener. Lincoln Elementary/Nichols Junior High/ETHS.
