This beautifully maintained yellow-brick octagon bungalow sits on one of Peterson Woods' most picturesque, tree-lined streets. With its striking bay front, arched entryway, and mature landscaping, the home offers timeless curb appeal. Inside, vintage character blends with thoughtful updates, including a 2022 kitchen renovation featuring custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a marble backsplash, open shelving, and Perrin & Rowe gold-finished fixtures. A welcoming living room showcases wood-trimmed bay windows, a brick fireplace, and warm natural light. Hardwood floors run throughout the main level, which also includes a formal dining room, two sizable bedrooms, and a nicely updated full bath. The finished lower level adds a spacious third bedroom, second full bath, family room, laundry, and storage. The expansive attic offers excellent potential for future expansion. Additional highlights include central air, gas-forced heai, a new water heater (2025), newer HVAC (2021), a private backyard, and two-car garage. Enjoy strolls along the scenic river paths in nearby Legion Park and quick access to public transit, shops, and dining. This is a rare opportunity to own a classic Chicago bungalow updated for modern living.
