Discover the timeless elegance of 12847 Maple Avenue, a distinguished residence in Blue Island's revered Historic District. Celebrated in the 2019 Blue Island house walk, this iconic home is a century-old gem, surrounded by the architectural beauty of landmark homes. Encompassing 1,750 square feet, the home features four generously-sized bedrooms and a thoughtfully updated bathroom. Original beveled glass windows flood the interior with natural light, highlighting the pristine, unpainted original woodwork and enhancing the home's classic charm. The spaciousness is further amplified by 9-foot ceilings on the main and upper levels. In the past three years, meticulous restoration has been completed, including a new roof, gutters, downspouts, tuck-pointing on architectural brick, and a custom exterior paint job. A new water heater adds to the home's modern comforts. The kitchen, outfitted with new appliances, flows into an elegant formal dining room, perfect for hosting. A three-season porch offers a tranquil retreat, while the basement presents a unique performance space with a stage and full bar, ideal for entertainment. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Blue Island's history, where past and present harmoniously converge.Two car detached garage and side drive keep your car off the streets and the gardens and one half of front lawn are planted with no maintenance, colorful native gardens and some edible plants, as well as a 100 year oak with a swing! Walking distance to Metra and schools, easy access to 127th exit on I-57, new coffee shop right down the street. This house won't list and deserves a family ready to make it theirs!
