Welcome home to this beautiful single family home in the heart of Irving Park! You'll be greeted by a charming exterior with a porch running the whole width of the home overlooking quiet, tree-lined Whipple Street. This gorgeous 2002 construction home with 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms has so much to offer and so many updates. Enter the home and you're greeted by the formal living and dining space, anchored by a gas start, wood-burning fireplace with a new mantel. The hardwood floors are freshly stained and finished in modern grey tones and flow to the rear of the home where you'll find a dream kitchen that was redone in 2015. An oversized 10' island is the centerpiece of this chef-quality kitchen with extensive storage and seating. Quartzite counters, modern white and dark wood cabinetry, KitchenAid stainless refrigerator, dishwasher and double oven, and a 6-burner Wolf range round out this exceptional kitchen. Entertain to your heart's content with the open floor plan that connects your kitchen to a grand family room and the most lovely yard. Outside you'll find updated decking, new fencing, a pea-gravel dog run and a 2-car garage. Head upstairs, lit by a skylight, and get ready to be blown away by the primary suite. A new bathroom in 2020 offers sleek, luxury finishes with dual vanities, separate free-standing soaking tub, vaulted ceilings and tons of natural light via three skylights. Continue into the room to find a massive walk-in closet and an oversized bedroom with cathedral ceilings and enough space for a king bedroom set (and more!). Two more spacious bedrooms and a guest bathroom offer that ideal 3-bed, 2-bath layout on the top level of the home...don't miss the convenient 2nd floor laundry! Walk to the lower level on the new wooden stairs and you'll feel soaring ceiling height in the huge rec. room. There's a second fireplace with new surround, new LVP flooring, a full bathroom and great natural light. Bedroom 4 is perfect for guests and the 5th bedroom is a great fitness room or home office. There's an additional utility room with hookups for 2nd laundry as well. Let's talk location: you're located in coveted Bateman Elementary district and can walk to the CTA Brown Line, parks, shops and restaurants in under a mile. Easy access to 90/94. Other 2020 updates include a new tear-off roof, new gutters & downspouts, two new AC compressors, one new furnace, new ejector pump. There's nothing to do but move right in!
