699 Woodlawn Ave.

This updated 3 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath home set on a quiet cul-de-sac in east Lake Forest is a wonderful blend of historic charm and modern amenities! Built in 1926, the home was seamlessly expanded in 2013 by the current owners. The renovations/additions included a new custom kitchen w/ large island, breakfast bar & Grabill cabinetry, a bright, cozy family room, a mudroom w/ lockers, a new formal powder room, and a stunning Primary bathroom w/ heated floors and two walk-in closets. Other features include hardwood floors & high ceilings throughout, newer Pella windows, a gracious living room w/ wood-burning fireplace, a beautiful formal dining room, a large Primary bedroom w/ vaulted ceiling, a full bathroom in the basement, and space in the lower level for a 4th bedroom and an office. Outside, the property has a fenced backyard, a lovely brick paver patio w/ gas line for a grill, a newer 2-car garage (2013), HardiePlank siding, a newer roof (2006/2013), and a drainage system that ties all downspouts & drains directly into the storm sewer. Located close to downtown Lake Forest, the UP North Metra commuter rail line (that terminates at Ogilvie Transportation Center), bike trails, and the recently renovated South Park (w/ new playground, tennis courts, baseball fields & batting cage, basketball court, soccer fields, bathrooms, and picnic area). All the work has been done on this amazing home, so all you need to do is move in & enjoy!
