2703 Greenwood Avenue

Welcome to 2703 Greenwood Avenue in this peaceful, walkable Trail Creek neighborhood! This charm-filled mid-century Cape Cod sits on nearly half an acre corner lot, just 5-10 minute drive from Washington Park Beach, Indiana Dunes, Shady Creek Winery, Friendship Botanic Gardens, and the South Shore Line (Carroll Ave Station). Plus, enjoy a short stroll to Nelson Park's sports courts, fields, playground, and Town Community Building! The main level features a formal dining room, cozy living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, and a spacious main-floor bedroom with built-in shelving and a walk-in closet. The main bath was updated in 2018 with a walk-in shower. The kitchen includes a gas range, microwave, refrigerator, and updated flooring. A true highlight is the expansive showcase family room boasting rustic exposed wood beams, custom built-ins, and wrap-around windows drenched in natural light. Upstairs, two oversized bedrooms feature rich wood walls, unique detailed wood-pattern ceilings, gabled dormer alcoves, and pristine vintage tile floors - complete with a spare box of original tiles! Downstairs, the full basement offers two versatile, partially finished rooms, a corner bar with a sink for entertaining, laundry facilities, and a newer Bilco door for easy exterior access. For peace of mind, the home features a newer roof (2018), sump pump (2019), and recent septic service (2023). Outdoors, storage seekers will love the like-new, oversized 24x24 2-car detached garage with rafter storage/workshop space, plus paved parking space around the garage and off-street parking on the other side of the property. A quaint 143 sq ft windowed cottage shed offers a rare built-in wood-burning grill with a chimney and vent fan. With a little updating, this space holds endless potential as a garden studio, workshop, or rustic gathering nook!
