    Property Description

    Welcome to 1648 Hillcrest Avenue! Perched atop one of Highland Park's most desirable locations near the iconic Highland Water Tower, this charming two-story home offers the space, character, and updates today's buyers are seeking. With 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a 2-car garage, and nearly 3, 000 finished square feet, there's room for everyone to live, work, and entertain. The main level is filled with timeless charm, featuring beautiful hardwood floors, a recently remodeled powder room, a comfortable family room perfect for gathering on game day, and a bright sunroom that makes an ideal home office or reading retreat. The remodeled kitchen is truly the heart of the home, offering excellent space for cooking, hosting, and everyday living. Step outside to the fully fenced backyard, where a generous patio creates the perfect setting for summer dinners, entertaining friends, or simply relaxing outdoors. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms, each with ample closet space, along with a full bathroom showcasing the classic character of period tilework. Continue to the third level, where vintage 1950s paneling adds warmth and personality. Currently used as a bedroom, this flexible space could serve as a home office, playroom, studio, or guest suite, with additional attic access offering future expansion potential. The lower level provides even more living space with a large recreation room ideal for movie nights, game days, or hobbies, along with a convenient three-quarter bathroom. Ample Storage space for your books or display items. A rare combination of size, character, and location in the heart of Highland Park—this is a home you won't want to miss.
