1314 Franklin Avenue

Stunning River Forest home that seamlessly combines modern luxury with timeless charm. Fully gut rehabbed by the homeowner between 2008-2010, nearly every detail was renewed-mechanicals, electrical, plumbing, windows, roof, gutters, flooring, kitchen, and baths-enhanced by custom millwork, copper water service, and a new drain line. At the heart of the home is a chef's kitchen with a 48" Wolf range, dual dishwashers, and twin 36" side-by-side refrigerator and freezer. French doors lead to an outdoor kitchen, patio, and a resort-style pool and hot tub by Barrington Pools. Wired for sound inside and out. The inviting living room offers park views and a gas log fireplace. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with walk-in closet and private bath, plus two additional bedrooms sharing a spa-inspired hall bath. The finished lower level includes a spacious rec room with a second fireplace, full bath, and plumbing rough-in for a wet bar. Large egress staircase walks out from laundry room and up to pool area. Everyday comforts include a heated driveway, attached two-car garage, and a well-designed floor plan. Located in the sought-after Willard Elementary School district and walking distance to dining along North Avenue's "Restaurant Row," this home delivers both elegance and convenience.
