Charming, well-maintained Ravenswood single-family home on an oversized 37.5' x 155' lot offering space, comfort, and flexibility in one of the neighborhood's most sought-after locations. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the main level features 10' ceilings and a bright, open living area that flows effortlessly to a rear wood deck-perfect for summer gatherings or quiet mornings outdoors in the urban vineyard oasis. The home offers three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, including a spacious primary suite with its own private deck. The newly renovated English basement, complete with a full bath, kitchenette, large windows, and both front and rear access, provides excellent additional living space for a family room, guest suite or rental/Airbnb option. Thoughtfully updated over the years, the home has recently had full renovation work done to the first floor, kitchen, powder room and basement living suite. New HVAC (2023), water filtration system (2023), full roof replacement (2016), energy-efficient windows, boiler, and upgraded siding with added insulation for year-round comfort. Enjoy the convenience of being close to neighborhood favorites, parks, and top-rated schools, along with easy access to public transit for commuting downtown. A rare highlight is the oversized 28' x 22' three-car garage plus an additional exterior parking space, offering incredible convenience and storage. Zoning and lot size present multiple value-add opportunities, including potential expansion, ADU development (located within the ADU pilot district), or redevelopment potential subject to zoning approval. The property offers a compelling opportunity as a move-in ready residence, long-term investment, or redevelopment play in a highly desirable Ravenswood location. With its extra-deep lot, the property also provides room to grow, whether you envision expanding the home, creating an outdoor oasis, or exploring future possibilities.A wonderful opportunity to own a move-in ready home with character, space, and long-term potential in the heart of Ravenswood.
