About This Home

Instantly you'll see how lovingly and well maintained this original owner kept this home. Noted first by the pristine care given to the front and back yards. Amazing plush green lawns, pride & beauty show in the many perennials that highlights all sides. Detailed brick raised garden edging, mature trees, and shrubs make it spectacular. Wide, side-concrete driveway leads to a very charming, cottage like appeal of the 2 1/2 car garage. There's also a patio area with an attached gas grill. The professionally cared for, carpet perfect lawn extends the depth of the yard & extends to the expansive area "behind" the garage. It can be used in so many different ways. This home sits on a higher elevation and a larger lot than some others with an additional 30 ft. (57' x 157') :) Inside you'll see the original hardwood floors have been preserved, such beautiful condition & color thru-out the main level. Newer Thermopane-efficient windows keep the interior bright & cheery. Beautiful Bow window in the living room and a Bay window in the kitchen are great features in these rooms. The kitchen can accommodate a large table that would overlook the yard. Lots of cabinet space, a pantry closet and all appliances too. 3 - good sized bedrooms, the main has a beautiful, serene window view into that gorgeous yard. Lower-level basement, spacious recreation room, a full bathroom, a bonus room that could be a 4th bedroom or work room, endless options. There are windows In every room. A sizable utility room with full-size washer, dryer, and utility sink & yet more storage. Note the newer gas-forced furnace w/humidifier, large capacity yet highly efficient central AC unit... and a newer complete tear off roof. There is so much space in this home... between the two levels a total of 2010 sq ft combined! "Perfect prime location"! Great schools, shopping, parks & restaurants. Metra station & Pace a super short distance. We are waiting for you.
