Our opinion: this lovely, updated 3-bed, 2.5-bath unit is in the nicest townhome complex in Oak Park. Let's start with location: it's set squarely in the center of town, yet is cloistered and off the beaten path, with an idyllic courtyard of deep green lawns and tall shade trees. Second, so much great space--three levels of roomy, generous living. The first floor is a cozy den, office, or family room with a wood-burning fireplace and sliding glass doors out to a private paver patio. On the main floor, you'll find a large, open, stainless-and-granite kitchen with peninsula, pantry, grilling balcony, and an eat-in area that could easily seat eight. The living room, with its wall of windows and a second wood-burning fireplace, can accommodate multiple conversation areas, and you could place a large dining room set here as well, if desired. A convenient half bath rounds out this floor. Three bedrooms and two full baths grace the third floor, which includes three skylights, as well as a super-convenient, full-size laundry closet. The large primary suite has generous closets, a bay window, and the newer primary bath offers a luxurious multi-jet shower. And here's another special feature: this fee-simple, all-brick, all-electric townhome with a smart thermostat includes an attached, spacious two-car garage, plus two exterior spaces. (Yes, Oak-CAN-Park.) The unit has a newer roof, and the entire complex was tuckpointed over the past two years, among many other improvements. Assessments are low, and the reserves are high. This is a homeowner's dream.
