8711 W 123rd Street, Palos Park, IL 60464

Description

Start the morning with coffee overlooking the wooded backyard, then spend the afternoon on nearby forest preserve walking trails or horseback riding trails. Village events at the park are just a few houses away, and the train station is right down the street for trips into Chicago. Set on 0.71 landscaped acres, this well-maintained Palos Park ranch feels tucked away while keeping village amenities and Northwestern Hospital close by. A new roof, gutters, fascia, and leaf guards are scheduled to be installed by late November, and a new radon mitigation system is already in place. In 2025, the main home received a new furnace, central air, and Aprilaire system, along with a new driveway, paver walkways and garage apron. The family room's separate furnace and A/C were replaced in 2022. Newer windows and sliding doors, a Navien tankless water heater, and a 2023 storage shed round out the updates. The three-tiered back deck, installed in 2025 with a built-in gardening area, gives you room to dine, entertain, or unwind beneath the trees. Sliding glass doors connect the living spaces to the decks, and a black paver gathering area and outdoor lighting make it easy to linger outside into the evening. Inside, original hardwood floors run through most of the main level, which has three bedrooms, two full baths, a powder room, and a laundry closet with a stacked washer and dryer. The primary bedroom has an updated private bath and a walk-in closet. The remodeled kitchen pairs custom hickory cabinetry with lighted glass-front upper cabinets, under-cabinet lighting, and room for a breakfast table. The family room addition features a cathedral ceiling finished in alder wood, a bar sink, and large windows that frame the backyard. The dining room shares those wooded views. The partially finished basement adds a recreation area, a fourth bedroom with a walk-in storage closet, extensive shelved storage, laundry room with bathroom features and a separate entrance from inside the garage. Additional features include a lighted attic extending over the home, overhead garage storage, a working well for outdoor watering, and five additional driveway parking spaces. Schedule a private showing and take a moment on the back deck to see what makes this setting feel so tucked away.
