7844 Kostner Ave, Skokie, IL 60076

Don't miss out on this bright multi-level home set on a wide lot in a close to downtown Skokie location. The owners hate to leave and have invested in many recent improvements: roof, HVAC, electric, and more. A bonus is the brick garage and fenced yard- perfect for your pooch or kids. Wood floors, large windows and recessed lights are hallmarks of the living/dining room. The adjacent kitchen, with new door to the yard, is ripe for opening to the living space. A few steps down are the recently redone family room (new drywall, lighting, luxury vinyl tile plank floors) and laundry room that also exits to the yard (new flooring and external door). Up a level from the living space are two bedrooms and a full bath. Set just far enough away from the 2 bedrooms is what is currently being used as the main bedroom. There is a large "attic" space accessible from the main bedroom, which some people have finished into deluxe storage or additional living space. The bedrooms also have wood floors and ample closet space. Your two-car garage will save you from cleaning off your windshield in the winter, and there's good street parking, too. Situated near downtown Skokie, the Yellow Line L station, Illinois Science & Technology Park, the Oakton Water Park & Exploratorium and much more. Take advantage of the award-winning library, farmer's market, shops, and restaurants that are handy, with or without a car. Easy City and North Shore access via The Edens Expressway, Skokie Swift, and Morton Grove Metra. Westfield Old Orchard Mall, Village Crossing and the new Sawmill Station shopping centers are all nearby. Enjoy downtown Skokie's streetscape and many boutique sized restaurants: Libertad, Yolo, Ja Dred, Village Inn Pizzeria & Sports Bar, and Kneads & Wants Bakery, to name a few. Once you move in, be sure to shop small at the local hardware and paint stores- great service and you won't get lost. A new deluxe (expensive) rental building has just been completed and a Homewood Suites hotel and conference center is under construction in the heart of downtown Skokie. Don't delay; take a look at this very livable home in a very convenient location.
