Highest and Best Deadline is 11:00 am on Monday, April 15th. ** Quintessential Oak Park Gunderson with tons of updates on a tree lined street and in a terrific location beckons! Arrive onto the generous, inviting front porch and into the welcoming foyer that leads to the sprawling first floor that's perfect for today's living and entertaining. Gather with loved ones in the spacious living room, boasting soaring ceilings and tall bright windows that bring in plenty of light. The adjoining dining room can easily host your largest holiday gatherings, and has line of sight to the kitchen for easy entertaining.

The kitchen opens to the roomy first floor family room where loved ones will gather for movie or game night - guaranteeing you'll never miss a moment of the action! A handy drop zone off the kitchen, a large deck that connects to the family room and a convenient powder room round out this level. When it's time to retire, head upstairs to find five generous bedrooms. The second floor showcases four spacious, sunny bedrooms (two of which can fit king-sized beds!) featuring tall windows and ample storage, a classic newer full bath as well as the oh-so-convenient second floor laundry!
