FIVE MINUTE WALK TO DOWNTOWN BROOKFIELD AND TRAIN! 3621 Vernon is a one-of-a-kind, updated 4BR/2BA Brookfield classic. This historic 1888 home, originally constructed as a two flat and still legal as a nonconforming two-flat -- with 2 bedrooms, full bath, living room and kitchen on each level -- has been transformed by its current owners into a uniquely flexible single-family house, lovingly restored while retaining its original turn-of-the-century character. A stately carved wooden staircase leads from the ceramic tile foyer to the second floor, which features 2BR/1BA, a separate loft area, and a second kitchen with vaulted ceiling and skylight! Original hardwood floors add warmth to both levels. Owners have made several upgrades over the past five years, including: NEW ROOF, NEW PLUMBING, NEW SIDING, NEW FURNACE, NEW WATER HEATER, REBUILT FRONT AND REAR SITTING PORCHES, AND MUCH MORE. The private backyard is a relaxing oasis, featuring a newer 2.5-car garage along with three off-alley parking spaces. Full basement features classic stone walls and hookups for two washers and dryers, along with tons of storage space. Top-rated schools include Riverside Brookfield HS!
