3910 Franklin Ave.

There is so much to love about this classic center entry colonial! It has great curb appeal, an outstanding location, an extra wide lot and a beautiful fresh interior! It is rare to find such a well-built and well-maintained home in this location and at this price! The walk-to everything location is ideal and allows quick and easy access to the award winning schools, vibrant downtown with dining and shopping, the Metra train, fitness centers and the hiking/bike trails of Bemis Woods! This handsome, sturdy brick home sits graciously on the over-sized 75' lot of this tree-lined street. Inside are large sun-filled rooms, refinished hardwood floors on both floors, 3 fireplaces, built-ins, over-sized windows and a dry finished basement. The first floor offers a huge family room that over-looks the backyard and has a brick raised hearth fireplace, a private first floor office, a large living room with beautiful fireplace & built-ins, a gracious formal dining room, an eat-in kitchen and an updated powder room. The second floor has a gracious landing separating the master bedroom from the other bedrooms and would offer easy access to an addition, if desired. The large master bedroom could easily have a private bath and the plumbing is accessible since there is currently a sink and vanity in the master bedroom nook. The lower level offers another finished area that has a fireplace, wet bar and built-ins and there is a large storage room and laundry area, also. This home is well-built with a brick exterior and has lovely mature landscaping and loads of parking with the two car tandem garage & a double wide concrete driveway for additional parking. This home would is perfect for expansion and the home office is a great bonus. Western Springs is a wonderful village with award winning schools, an active theatre and library, community events, recreational facilities and so much more. It is only 20 miles to downtown Chicago (20 minutes on the Metra express train) and easy access to both airports and expressways, too.
