1749 W Granville Avenue Chicago, IL 60660

Welcome to this Edgewater charming Victorian home with a turret! The beautiful home was the main builder's home on Granville and sits on a 30x160 lot. As you enter from the lovely front porch, you will be taken back in time noticing the original wood molding and gleaming hardwood floors throughout. There are 2 large bay windows in the living room and leads to the light filled dining room with built-in china cabinet and lovely molding with a ledge for displaying your favorite dishes. The kitchen has a beautiful Mexican tile backsplash, newer cabinets and hard surface counters and opens to the 3 season sun room with a perfect view of the stunning landscaping. The first floor powder room was recently updated with tiles to match the hallway tiles. The second floor features 4 rooms with hardwood floors: a large front bedroom below the turret; two nice sized bedrooms with built in shelving and one smaller room which has been used as a baby room, guest room and office. The whole upstairs also has lovely wood floors, ample closet space and lots of light from the large windows. The upstairs bathroom has been remodeled and includes a deep tub that is luxurious for long baths. The new tiling is in muted colors of the sea. Recently the traffic flow has been changed so that Granville has become a quiet street much safer for children and bicyclists. We have a small library near the sidewalk that is used and contributed to frequently. A cherry tree blooms in Spring and produces sour cherries in later Summer. The back yard is an escape from the business of urban life. It is fenced in with a 2- car garage and is planted with perennials and in the Spring is full of beautiful flowers. A small garden of herbs and raspberries is on the side. The attic and basement are unfinished although the basement has drywall over most of it. There are also many shelves for storage in the basement. Both the attic and the basement hold potential to be developed into additional rooms. A noted neighborhood change this year is the addition of a Metra stop just a block away. It is 10 minutes downtown!
