In the heart of the Old Town neighborhood of Western Springs, there is a very unforgettable home that sits proudly across the street from Laidlaw Park (with tennis courts, new pavilion, playground area (2017) and athletic fields) Typical of the English Tudor, this gorgeous brick manor has steeply-pitched gable roofs, playfully elaborate masonry chimney, embellished doorways, and typical timbering to communicate the English Tudor style. The house has spectacular gardens reminiscent of the elegant English countryside. A thoughtful improvement was made to home when the current homeowners added a large family room, massive garage and spectacular vaulted, 3-season sunroom with a big indoor/outdoor fireplace and TV that overlooks the beautiful new hardscape back patio (with built-in grilling appliances and other outdoor kitchen features). The gardens typical of the English gardener are celebrated all across the large lot (75X133) and easily maintained using the built-in automated sprinkler system. The home greets you with a large foyer with immaculate wood floors that usher you from massive living room with wood-burning fireplace to large dining room to kitchen with large eat-in breakfast nook to the adjoining tv/family room. The kitchen has been recently updated with new refrigerator, dishwasher, and countertop / backsplash. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a newly updated bathroom with spa-tub and walk-in rain-shower. Near to the primary bedroom's massive walk-in closet, the home conveniently has the second-floor laundry room. There are three other big bedrooms (with updated window improvements in storms/screens) and there is a lot of opportunity to carve out sleeping spaces, offices, workspaces, or hobby-rooms. The lower level areas provide lots of room for storage or - put your creativity to work - lots of room for fitness, home office, of kid's informal play areas. Most of the mechanical equipment is newer - new boiler and sump pump technology. There is a very big 2.5 car detached garage with second story storage. Steps from Laidlaw School and great proximity town and Metra train... and the happiest park in Western Springs - it's right out the front door!
