Tucked away in Brookfield's highly desirable Hollywood neighborhood, this beautifully updated home offers a blend of character, comfort, and modern convenience. The property features 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms and has been thoughtfully updated throughout. The main level welcomes you with a warm and bright living room, a formal dining room with charming bay windows and a built-in seating bench, and a fully remodeled kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and under-cabinet lighting. A cozy three-season sunroom, now outfitted with new windows, adds extra living space and opens to a spacious backyard complete with an extended deck, a cement patio designed for a firepit, and a cedar privacy fence, perfect for entertaining or relaxing outdoors. The backyard has been thoughtfully upgraded with five mature 6-foot Blue Spruce evergreens and tall ornamental grasses, providing privacy, lush greenery, and year-round curb appeal. The patio and lawn areas were regraded and leveled with fresh soil, then overseeded to encourage thick, healthy grass growth. Together, these enhancements create a welcoming outdoor space for relaxation and entertaining, while also improving natural water absorption and ensuring long-term enjoyment of the yard. Recent improvements include a new check valve and new cement front steps and railings. Both the front and back doors are new, each fitted with screen doors, and a new kitchen window was added to overlook the sunroom. Inside, you'll find built-in shelves with a fireplace, fresh paint throughout, and new fixtures on the first floor. Major mechanical upgrades include the removal of radiators and boiler, replaced with dual forced heat and air conditioning systems (with furnaces in both the attic and basement), an upgraded electrical panel, a French drain system around the basement, a new sump pump with battery backup, a new water heater, and attic insulation. Located within walking distance of Hollywood Elementary and Riverside-Brookfield High School, and steps from the Hollywood Metra station, this home offers unbeatable access to schools and easy commuting. The neighborhood is rich with amenities, including the Brookfield Zoo, Salt Creek, and walkable downtowns in Brookfield, Riverside, and La Grange, filled with restaurants, parks, and cultural attractions. With its extensive updates, prime location, and timeless appeal, this home is a rare find in one of Brookfield's most vibrant and welcoming communities.
