Welcome to 2648 Western Ave, an exceptional opportunity in one of Highland Park's most desirable locations. Set on a beautiful half-acre lot, this classic brick ranch with a walk-out lower level offers the perfect canvas to create your ideal home or a compelling value-add investment. With 5 bedrooms and 3.1 bathrooms, the home features a functional, flexible layout with strong bones and abundant natural light. The main level includes a sun-filled living room with a full wall fireplace, a spacious eat-in kitchen, and comfortable bedroom spaces ready to enjoy as-is or thoughtfully update over time. The finished walk-out lower level adds incredible versatility, offering a large family room, additional bedroom or office, full bath, laundry area, and a private-entry in-law suite with a kitchen, 2 bedrooms, and a full bathroom. Ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, or potential rental income, this space truly expands what the home can offer.
