Big front porch. Terrazzo floors throughout the house except for the tile floors in the kitchen and dining room. Most of the closets are cedar lined. Original wood cabinets and curved formica counters in the kitchen give it a bit of a retro feel. Original tile is in good shape in both bathrooms. Many improvements in the past 3 - 7 years include new roof, new PGT windows, new A/C and ductwork, new electric breaker panel and new kitchen appliances except for the vintage built-in wall oven that works fine. The beautiful lawn has been watered by the well for the sprinkler system. Oversized 1 car garage with good storage areas. Approximately half a mile to Arlington Park with a dog park.
