About This Home

Just outside the city, you'll find this remarkable brick bungalow situated on an oversized 80x186 lot in the heart of Des Plaines. Yes, you read that right - almost 15,000sf of land! The charming 4-bedroom, 3 bathroom home was fully remodeled in 2006 and offers almost 3000 square feet of well-designed living space. Step into the inviting living room featuring a cozy gas fireplace, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The separate formal dining room flows into the spacious kitchen complete with granite countertops, center island, stainless steel appliances, and a bright breakfast nook. Enjoy year-round natural light in the 16x9 sunroom with direct access to the expansive backyard. The main level also offers the convenience of a bedroom and full bath, ideal for guests. Upstairs, all 3 bedrooms feature generously sized walk-in closets, including the spacious primary suite with a separate shower and jacuzzi tub. A second-floor laundry room adds everyday convenience. The 1200sf unfinished basement is a blank canvas ready for your ideas, offering excellent potential for a massive family room, recreation space, or additional living area, plus a second laundry area. Step outside to find an exceptionally well built 2 1/2 car garage(2016), with radiant heated concrete, a second floor for expansion and a side parking pad. Additional highlights include hardwood floors throughout, new basement windows (2025), new storm doors (2026), and new rear entry door (2026). Ideally located near Prairie Lakes Park, Beacon Tap, downtown Des Plaines Metra, shopping, dining, and top-rated schools. Exceptional opportunity in a highly convenient and desirable location!
