About the Listing 27150 - 268273,706890

Welcome to this charming midcentury split-level in sought-after Crestwood Gardens-offered for the first time by its original owner. This lovingly maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home is filled with timeless character and thoughtful updates that blend classic design with modern convenience. Known as the "Driftwood" model when first built, this home originally debuted with a price tag of just $22,450-a wonderful nod to its midcentury roots! The inviting living room welcomes you with vaulted ceilings, beautiful southern exposure, and hardwood floors beneath the existing carpet. The eat-in kitchen serves as the heart of the home and features solid oak cabinetry, a skylight that fills the space with natural light, stainless steel appliances, a convenient built-in desk-perfect for work-from-home needs or a homework station-and a spacious pantry closet for added storage and organization. A convenient first-floor powder room adds everyday functionality. Upstairs you'll find three nicely sized bedrooms, a full bath, and a large linen closet for excellent additional storage-an appreciated feature in homes of this era. Custom Bali window treatments in the kitchen and two of the bedrooms add a polished, modern touch. A standout feature is the beautifully remodeled lower level (2026), providing wonderful additional living space with new luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh paint, updated trim, and new light fixtures-creating a versatile area ideal for a family room, home office, or recreation space. The basement also includes a large laundry and utility room with extra shelving, offering excellent storage and practical workspace. The home is complete with a spacious 2.5-car garage, adding even more everyday convenience. Important non-cosmetic updates provide true peace of mind, including a roof replacement (2019), replacement windows, furnace and A/C (2020), washer and dryer (2023), sump pump (2017), and brand-new GE range and dishwasher (2026). Fresh interior paint and updated lighting make this home feel truly move-in ready. Ideally located within walking distance to Nathan Hale Primary and Middle Schools, and just minutes from parks, the Crestwood Wellness & Recreation Center, Palos Forest Preserves, shopping, and dining. Low taxes that include trash and recycling add even more value. Lovingly cared for over decades and rich with midcentury charm, this is a rare opportunity to own a solid, well-maintained home with great bones and endless possibilities. Welcome home.
