Property Description

Welcome to 552 Burton Avenue, a beautifully maintained all-brick mid-century split-level ideally situated in one of Highland Park's most sought-after neighborhoods. Located just steps from the Ravinia Festival, the Metra station, local shops, and restaurants, and directly across from Brown Park with its tennis courts and green space, this home offers an exceptional combination of charm, convenience, and lifestyle. Built in 1956, this sun-filled residence features hardwood floors, crown molding, and abundant natural light that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout, highlighted by new bedroom ceiling fans and updated dining and living area light fixtures (2025). The updated kitchen is beautifully appointed with rich cherry cabinetry, stainless steel appliances (2022), and granite countertops, flowing seamlessly into the main living spaces for effortless entertaining. The upper level offers three spacious bedrooms and a refreshed bathroom with a new toilet (2025), while the finished lower level provides a versatile fourth bedroom or office, an upgraded full bathroom (2026), and flexible space for recreation. Outside, the property boasts excellent curb appeal with a completely replaced driveway (2021) and a private backyard oasis featuring a new custom fence with a privacy cover (2025) and fresh landscaping (2025). The home features a long list of recent capital improvements, including a new water heater with an overflow protector (2026), a new garbage disposal (2026), a sealed, capped, and tuck-pointed chimney (2025), a new furnace (2024), custom living room blinds (2024), a wired 24/7 outdoor security video camera (2024), a new A/C system (2020), a newer roof (2016), and upgraded electrical service (2015).
