Property Description

Classic historic charm meets an exceptional walk-to-everything La Grange location at 240 8th Avenue. Built in 1908, this timeless home offers over 2,450 square feet of living space and sits prominently on a beautiful corner lot measuring approximately 7,000 square feet in one of La Grange's most desirable neighborhoods. A deep screened front porch welcomes you home and provides the perfect place to relax, greet neighbors, and enjoy the character of the community. Mature landscaping surrounds the home including privet hedges, classic yews, and beautiful American redbud trees, creating a picturesque setting that enhances the home's stately presence. Inside, a gracious foyer with a dramatic staircase introduces the home's historic character. The spacious living room features a fireplace and built-in bookcases, while the formal dining room showcases extraordinary original woodworking, making it ideal for gatherings and entertaining. Toward the rear of the home, the layout opens to a large kitchen and family room addition completed in 2014, creating the open gathering space buyers love. This addition also includes a full bathroom with walk-in shower, mudroom area, and convenient guest storage. The second level offers three generously sized bedrooms, including one with an adjoining suite that could easily serve as a fourth bedroom, office, or private retreat. A third-floor walk-up attic already includes plumbing and offers tremendous potential for a future primary suite, additional bedrooms, or bonus living space. The full unfinished basement provides abundant storage and the opportunity to create recreation, fitness, or hobby spaces. Outside, the property includes a detached garage and spacious backyard, all set on a larger-than-typical lot for this sought-after neighborhood. Located within the highly regarded Cossitt Avenue Elementary and Lyons Township High School, and just a short walk to downtown La Grange, including restaurants, boutiques, the historic La Grange Theatre, and the La Grange Road Metra station with express trains to downtown Chicago, this home offers the perfect blend of historic character, space, and location.
