Homes of this caliber rarely come to market, especially one being publicly offered for the first time! Set on a historic block in downtown Mount Prospect's coveted Triangle district, this meticulously maintained 1923 full-brick Craftsman bungalow combines architectural integrity with meaningful modern upgrades and a truly walkable lifestyle. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence showcases original and refinished maple hardwood floors, plaster walls, period doors with vintage hardware, and beautifully preserved woodwork throughout. Spacious bedrooms, large closets including a walk-in, custom built-ins, and a lofted library create flexible living spaces that feel both timeless and functional. The main living area is anchored by a gas fireplace with custom cabinetry. A fully rebuilt front porch extends the living experience outdoors and overlooks the historic streetscape. The refreshed kitchen is complemented by a butler pantry, updated appliances, and a reverse osmosis drinking water system. Upstairs, the remodeled bath offers a Bain Ultra therapeutic soaking tub and separate shower, creating a spa-like retreat. Major capital improvements reflect long-term stewardship and confidence: architectural-shingle roof, premium double-pane custom Marvin wood windows, copper gutters, upgraded electrical panel, new insulation, and updated mechanical infrastructure. The approximately 1,400 square foot English walkout basement features brand-new windows, entry and screen door system and provides exceptional storage, recreation, or future finishing potential. Newer chest freezer, washer and dryer. Outdoor living is equally intentional with landscaped open yard areas, patio and garden beds, an electric fence system, and a dedicated hammock retreat. A brick 2+ car garage is complemented by a remodeled 200 square foot art studio or office space. Southwest exposure fills the home with natural light throughout the day. All of this is just steps from the Metra, library, parks, restaurants, farmers markets, and year-round downtown community events. Located within highly regarded District 57 and Prospect High School boundaries. Originally owned by one family and never before listed on the MLS, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a true legacy property in one of Mount Prospect's most desirable neighborhoods.
