Welcome to 713 S Humphrey Ave - a beautifully expanded, meticulously maintained 5-bedroom home that blends timeless character with modern comfort. Step into an elegant foyer framed by original wooden posts and crown molding, setting the tone for the craftsmanship throughout. To the right, the living room features a decorative fireplace with built-in bookshelves and stunning original stained-glass windows. To the left, the formal dining room impresses with a classic built-in buffet and a statement chandelier - perfect for gatherings. The main level offers exceptional flexibility with two bedrooms, ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or dedicated work-from-home space. Enclosed porches at both the front and back of the home extend your living options. Upstairs, a full 2008 renovation created a spacious second level with three additional bedrooms (each with walk-in closets), an office nook, and both a full and half bath - providing room for everyone. The lower level (remodeled in 2013) adds even more functionality with a comfortable family room, ample storage, and a laundry area with a newer washer and dryer ready for the next owner. Thoughtful upgrades include central air, a vapor barrier, French drain, and sump pump in the basement, and an updated water service line for peace of mind. Outside, the owner's passion for gardening shines - both the front and back yards feature fruit trees and bushes, blooming perennials, and thoughtfully tended raised beds. Located on a tree-lined street just steps from parks, schools, shopping, the Arts District, and transit, this home offers the best of Oak Park living.

The fresh, updated family bath features marble tile, a deep soaker tub, loads of storage space and completes this level. The recently refinished third-floor bedroom is the perfect oasis for teens or a bonus work or play space! The high, dry, bright, lower level offers even more room to roam with a huge family room and a bedroom that could be the perfect office, guest, or workout space, especially with this level's full, spa-like bath with a walk-in steam shower. Mechanicals and a spacious laundry/storage area round out this level. Al-fresco living and entertaining is a dream in this extra-wide yard with plenty of space to play or host BBQs. It boasts two patios (one covered!), a two-car garage, plus additional parking space! All these incredible features in a well-maintained home that features a ton of updates - attic remodel (2022 - chimney stack removed, attic finished with insulation and heat/air provided to the space), furnace (2022), water heater (2022), air conditioner (2022), roof (2022), and more. Fantastic location - a minute from the Avenue shopping and dining district boasting restaurants, grocery, coffee shops, and more, close to award-winning schools, parks, grocery, coffee shops, public transit, and all that Oak Park has to offer!
