Property details

About 542 Hanford St

Is this a dream? Open concept, completely updated home with a fully fenced-in whimsical back yard and a nearly-new two car garage, on a block where they are building not one - but FIVE brand new homes, AND, you are just two blocks away from Merion Village? It's not a dream!! But wait - there is more! It is tax abated until 2035! All of the important items were completed in 2019 and were all permitted - Roof, HVAC, electric, siding, windows, engineered hardwood floors, fence and back patio. Two car garage completed in 2020. New paint in 2023 and 2025! The first floor is open and bright with high ceilings and tall windows. The large kitchen has stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops for miles (*estimate may be off), loads of cabinets, ceramic tile backsplash, updated lighting. and bar island. The powder room off of the back entry looks like something out of a home decor magazine and a nice contrast to the bright main space with muted, elegant wallpaper emphasizing the tall space. Contrasting the modern updates is the original banister on the staircase! Upstairs find three nice sized bedrooms and a large full bath. Plenty of storage available in the full basement. Less than a mile to Schiller Park, and close proximity to Nationwide Children's Hospital, coffee shops, restaurants, retail, and southside parks. This beautiful renovation with an outdoor space perfect for summer relaxation will not last! Photos coming at the end of April!
