About this home
Welcome to 836 S Ashland Avenue - a thoughtfully renovated La Grange home that lives much larger than expected, featuring an open floor plan, a remarkable finished two-story heated and cooled garage, abundant storage, unique bonus spaces, and a private backyard setting that makes this home truly stand out. The main level features a bright, open-concept layout with beautifully refinished hardwood floors throughout. The updated kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living spaces, creating a natural gathering place for everyday living and entertaining. Two bedrooms and a full bath are tucked away from the main living areas, offering a layout that feels both open and functional. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom provides a private retreat with multiple closets and an adjoining loft area that serves as an ideal dressing room, walk-in closet extension, or bonus space. The finished lower level adds a bright and inviting recreation room with natural light, a full bath, laundry area, pantry, utility room, and additional storage, providing valuable extra living space without feeling like a traditional basement. Outside, mature landscaping, garden-inspired outdoor spaces, and a custom privacy fence create a backyard that feels peaceful, private, and surprisingly secluded. Whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee or hosting family and friends, the outdoor living spaces are every bit as inviting as the interior. The finished garage adds exceptional year-round flexibility. The main level is ideal for entertaining, recreation, hobbies, or gatherings, while the finished upper-level bonus room provides an excellent office, playroom, or studio. Extensive storage throughout the garage and upper level adds functionality rarely found in similar homes. Recent improvements and updates throughout the home create a move-in ready property that blends modern convenience with the character and charm that make La Grange homes so desirable. Updated finishes, refinished hardwood floors, and thoughtful enhancements throughout allow the next owner to simply move in and enjoy. Ideally located less than a mile to the award-winning restaurants and shops of downtown La Grange, the Metra station, and Farmer's Market as well as tree-filled parks and top-rated schools, this home offers the perfect balance of neighborhood charm, convenience, and lifestyle. Move-in ready, full of character, and offering an exceptional amount of usable space both inside and out, 836 S Ashland Avenue is a home that must be experienced in person to be fully appreciated.
