Description
Welcome to 6808 W Argyle St, where serenity meets RARITY in this well-maintained ranch home on nearly HALF AN ACRE in the beautiful Big Oaks neighborhood of Norwood Park. There is potential galore and this beloved home is much more than meets the eye. Upon entering, enjoy the inviting living room with bay window that lets in ample natural lighting and a large walk-in closet. Adjacent to the living room are two bedrooms with hardwood flooring, as well as an updated full bathroom with intricate tile work and arched ceiling above the tub. One of the bedrooms leads to the heated sunroom with exterior door – this is perfect as a greenhouse, lounging area, etc. Situated in the center of the home, the kitchen offers an eating area and looks through to the expansive dining and family room. The latter features a decorative fireplace and large windows that capture the beauty of the backyard. The primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and updated en suite bathroom also offers picturesque views of the yard. The laundry room houses the mechanics and provides storage. But wait, there’s more! Relax or entertain in the bar area, with exterior door, that can easily double as a den. The spacious workroom is currently used as a workshop, but can be converted into a FOURTH BEDROOM, office, study, media room, additional storage – you name it! There is also an attached one-car garage with manual door. Last but absolutely not least, take in the tremendous, fenced backyard that is the majority of the whopping ~0.46-acre lot (19,869 sq ft to be exact). Boasting a patio, gazebo, two sheds, land that is literally the width of 6 neighboring standard lots, and GATED ACCESS TO THE REAR ALLEY, think of all the possibilities. Ample space for storing your boat, trailer, snowmobile, Jet ski, etc! Great potential for improving the existing house or developing on the land. Just minutes to tons of retail and restaurants on Harlem Ave, Interstate access, public transit, parks, Ridgemoor Country Club, and more. This is an ESTATE and selling as-is.
