About this home
Rare opportunity for single-level living on coveted Morningside Drive! This exceptional 3,221 sq ft all-brick ranch is set on a picturesque .5-acre lot framed by stately oaks in one of the area's most desirable neighborhoods, commonly known as Whispering Oaks. This gem offers spacious living with an updated, open layout and a private backyard oasis. Inside, enjoy solid oak hardwood floors throughout the living room, family room, dining room, and all bedrooms. The rest of the home (including the brightly finished 1,636 sq ft basement), features new white porcelain tile flooring. The eat-in kitchen is updated with white cabinetry, granite countertops, many newer stainless steel appliances (2023 & 2024), a center island, and a planning desk--perfect for everyday living and entertaining. It is wide open to a welcoming family room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, built-in bookshelves, and expansive windows overlooking the bluestone patio and huge backyard. The four bedrooms are unusually spacious, and the primary suite offers exceptional closet storage and access to the bluestone patio. Notable upgrades include premium Marvin windows throughout the entire home, a brand new 2025 high-efficiency Carrier furnace and AC, enhanced attic insulation for superior energy efficiency, a new roof and 5" seamless gutters (complete tear-off in 2023). Laundry is currently in the basement with optional hookups in the mudroom. Located in a walkable neighborhood with sidewalks, minutes from Lake Michigan-beach access at Fort Sheridan, scenic bike and hiking trails, Metra, Starbucks, and TOP dining options!...
