Introducing this charming Kenilworth home that has undergone extensive renovations, presenting a delightful living experience. This 3-bedroom, 3.1-bathroom residence boasts an array of desirable features and is situated in a prime location, nestled behind a picturesque white picket fence. Notable recent upgrades include a new primary bath & closet, full roof replacement on both the home and garage, featuring a new standing seam metal roof above the front porch, as well as new gutters and downspouts. Additionally, the property benefits from a new 200-amp electrical panel and a high-efficiency NTI wi-fi enabled boiler, ensuring modern comfort and convenience. The master bathroom skylight and window, second-floor hall bath, and most of the Marvin replacement windows are also newer. The home's layout provides a nice flow, creating an ideal setting for entertaining. The first floor comprises a spacious living room, a dining room, and a beautifully sunlit family room adorned with a wood-burning fireplace and custom built-in bookshelves. The February 2023 refinishing of the flooring throughout most of the home adds a fresh touch. The galley kitchen has newly painted cabinets, and stainless-steel appliances. It's the perfect space for culinary endeavors and offers a sunny breakfast room that overlooks the fenced-in backyard. The lower level of the home offers versatility, with a full bath that makes it perfect for an in-law or nanny suite, private office, or as a recreational space for children. Other features of this lovely property include a two-car detached garage, drop-down attic storage, and a deck in the backyard that is equipped with hard-piped gas, perfect for your outdoor kitchen aspirations. The location is exceptional, with the Kenilworth Metra stop and Sears School just steps away. The property is also within the sought-after Joseph Sears (38) and New Trier High School Districts (203).
