This charming bungalow sits on a huge lot in a fabulous location & lives larger than it appears! Step through a new door into an enclosed front porch & explore this adorable home with many recent updates. The spacious living room features refinished hardwood floors, refinished plaster walls & a wood burning fireplace. Freshly painted formal dining room, with built-in, new light fixture & new windows, leads out to a lovely deck that overlooks the brick patio & large backyard, complete with a new fence & newer two-car garage. The kitchen boasts stainless steel appliances, including Viking fridge, plus there's a first-floor laundry & an updated powder room. Upstairs, you'll find a renovated full bath with a heated floor & new vanity. The front bedroom has new windows & both bedrooms feature refinished hardwood floors & recent paint. Home originally had 3 bedrooms; later two bedrooms were combined to enlarge the primary bedroom with nice closet space. Don't miss the extensive new landscaping in the front & back that brings so much joy when in bloom. Enjoy walking to downtown Highland Park, Sunset Woods Park with playground & tennis courts, schools, shops, train & all the conveniences. Great value! Home is being sold "as is".
