Property Description
Welcome to 6725 N Oketo Ave, a fully renovated 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home in Chicago's sought-after Edison Park neighborhood. This home has been extensively updated with over $70,000 in improvements, including a brand-new kitchen featuring quartz countertops, all new appliances (with a new fridge being installed in 2024), and beautifully refinished hardwood floors completed in July 2024. The basement offers 580 sq ft of finished living space with engineered hardwood flooring (done just two years ago) and includes a full bathroom, providing extra versatility. A major highlight is the oversized deck with rebuilt railings (2023) and a heated pool, perfect for entertaining. Exterior upgrades include new sod being installed on the parkway within the next two weeks, cement work completed in 2023, and a white privacy fence added just last year. The roof is only 3 years old and comes with leased solar panels ($89/month combined payment to Sunrun and ComEd), offering substantial energy savings. Structural reinforcements include 3/4 steel beams in the living/dining room ceiling and breakfast nook, ensuring long-term durability. While most of the home has been updated, the blue bedroom remains as the only original space. Additional features include a detached 2-car garage, excellent IB school district, and property taxes currently at $8,900 with the homeowner exemption. Mechanical updates: water heater (5 years old), main furnace and A/C (both 25 years old), and upstairs HVAC unit (20 years old). The laundry room will soon feature a new steamer installation. Windows are older but functional and not original. This is a true move-in-ready home in a fantastic location, blending modern updates with long-term value.
