Welcome to 17811 Harwood Avenue - a beautifully updated two-story home on a spacious corner lot in the heart of Homewood. While listed as a 3-bedroom, the current owners have thoughtfully configured the home as a 4-bedroom, offering incredible flexibility for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. With plenty of room to grow, this layout adapts easily to your needs. This move-in ready residence blends classic charm with modern upgrades, offering the perfect combination of character and convenience just blocks from downtown shops, restaurants, and the Metra. Inside, you'll find a thoughtfully renovated interior featuring an updated kitchen (2018) with a large island, white cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, two remodeled bathrooms - one on each floor (2018), and bright living spaces with newer windows throughout (2010 & 2018). The first floor includes two bedrooms, including the primary suite, while the second floor offers a third bedroom, a cozy sitting area, and a spacious flex room currently used as an office - easily convertible into a fourth bedroom. The full-height basement, completed in 2017, adds valuable living or storage space and includes an overhead sewer system for peace of mind. Major system upgrades include all-new plumbing, main floor electrical, HVAC, and water and sewer lines to the street - all completed in 2018. Additional highlights include a new concrete patio (2019), charming front and rear porches, updated siding and partial roof (2018-2019), and a detached garage with an upgraded electrical panel. A truly rare find with major improvements already done - this home is ready for its next chapter. Don't miss it!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
