Welcome to 7420 N Octavia Ave, a beautifully renovated raised ranch offering modern updates and classic charm in one of Chicago's most desirable neighborhoods. Sitting on a wide 36' x 125' lot, this home features dusk cherry luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout and generous ceiling height making for a spacious, airy feel. The sunlit living room is highlighted by oversized bay windows with east and southern exposure, while all three bedrooms are generously sized-two with peaceful northern light and the primary with both north and west-facing windows. The main bathroom has been fully remodeled with a new tub, updated electric and plumbing, stylish fixtures, and proper exterior ventilation. The gourmet kitchen is a true centerpiece, showcasing quartz countertops, two-tone Malmo Suite cabinetry, a five-burner gas range with a vented hood, built-in oven and microwave, a farmhouse sink, and a triple-door refrigerator/freezer-all new in 2025. The basement offers 7-foot ceilings, wood shelving, and a second refrigerator (included), with plenty of room for storage or future expansion. Key updates include a new roof (2016), all windows and doors (2019), a professionally sealed foundation by Perma-Seal in 2023 with a transferable lifetime warranty, a 2008 furnace and A/C system, a 2010 water heater (plus a brand-new uninstalled unit that conveys), and a new washer/dryer in 2025. Outside, enjoy a concrete driveway, front porch, a two-car garage with shelving, fresh mulch, a brick patio, and an extended driveway-ideal for entertaining or relaxing. This home is located within the Chicago Public School District and is assigned to top-rated Ebinger Elementary School (K-8), just 0.8 miles away, and Taft High School (7-12), located 2.4 miles from the home. Situated in the heart of Edison Park, this northwest side neighborhood is known for its tight-knit community, excellent schools, and vibrant local scene. Enjoy dining along the popular "Restaurant Row," browsing charming shops, and participating in local events like the annual Edison Park Fest-all while enjoying the ease of suburban living with quick access to downtown via nearby Metra stations. Additionally, there are many varied grocery store options nearby - Trader Joe's, Jerry's Fruit & Garden and H Mart.
