Property Description

HIGHEST & BEST SUNDAY 3/1 @ 5PM. This iconic River Forest Buurma Brothers-style home masterfully pairs historic architectural integrity with a sophisticated, modern glow-up.

The interior radiates elegance, featuring newly refinished hardwood floors, designer wall coverings, and professional closet systems, all complemented by updated climate essentials like a newer boiler and central AC. The luxury extends outdoors to a private sanctuary, where the newer paver patio with a built-in fire pit and gas grill overlooks professionally landscaped grounds. Secured by a new driveway with an electric gate and a dedicated wrought iron kennel, this home is the perfect blend of classic prestige and effortless, move-in-ready living.
