About 219 Linden Ave

Check out this amazing Craftsman masterpiece right in the heart of central Oak Park's estate section. It's solid brick construction with beautiful quarter-sawn oak floors, tons of natural light, and lovely architectural details throughout grace this space. Built in 1923 by architect Roy J. Hotchkiss (who was the chief designer for E.E. Roberts), the Jacob Ecker House is truly spectacular and unique. As you walk in, the large double-doored entry foyer and receiving room welcome you, leading straight into the grand living room. It features a stunning original tiled fireplace and plenty of space for multiple conversation areas. The spacious dining room is just waiting for your favorite celebrations, and don't forget about the large screened front porch-perfect for entertaining on those lovely fair-weather days. The chef's kitchen is a dream, equipped for your finest meals with custom maple cabinetry, stainless appliances, soft cork floors, and even room for a breakfast table! One standout feature of this home is the first-floor primary suite, which includes a spacious bedroom, a newer heated sunporch, a cozy sitting room or office, custom closets, and a gorgeous primary suite bathroom. You'll also find another bedroom or office on this level, along with a newer full hall bath. Head up to the second floor to discover three large bedrooms adorned with beautiful trim work and oak floors, plus a nice foyer area for reading and another exquisite full bath. The lower level (more than 2900 sq.ft. in itself!) offers a huge soundproofed movie room, a game room complete with a pool table, a large laundry room, and plenty of storage. You'll appreciate the one-car attached garage and the space for up to three additional parking spots. The 70'x165' lot provides a lush, expansive yard and garden.
