About this House

This one will be worth the wait! 23231 Forest gives new meaning to “attention-to-detail.” That includes everything- updates, maintenance, and overall pride of ownership. From the moment you step in - fall in love with the historic charm of coved ceilings and refinished hardwood floors paired with updates galore. The kitchen has quartz countertops and subway tile backsplash and newer SS appliances. Separate dining area with beautiful natural light. Take a soak in the extra deep bathtub in the updated bathroom. Two bedrooms on the main floor with one of them opening to a cozy porch overlooking the backyard. The upstairs is spacious and feels like a retreat with the primary bedroom and ample closet space. The basement is perfect for flex space, office space, recreation, or storage. And then there are the “big ticket items” - brand new driveway with professional regrading of the yard, custom hand-built Amish shed with roll-up door, new furnace with hepa filtering and humidifier, and a new brick and mortar exterior sill replacement to ensure many, many more years of structural integrity on this classic brick beauty. All appliances are newer including hot water heater. Roof was replaced approximately 2015. Wait - there’s still more: located in east Oak Park just north of 9 mile so get your steps in with a short walk to downtown Ferndale or Geary Park. Ferndale Schools. BATVAI
