This spacious, 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath stunner is coming soon and offers the perfect blend of classic charm and modern updates. Once inside, you'll be greeted by a bright and open floor plan where abundant natural light streams in through beautiful bay windows on the main floor. Even more, gorgeous hardwood floors flow throughout the main and upper levels and bedrooms. The spacious, eat-in kitchen is a chef's delight with tons of cabinet and counter space, stainless steel appliances, tumbled marble backsplash, and Silestone countertops; a gorgeous bay window in the family room provides a picturesque view of the serene backyard. You'll also find plenty of space for family and guests with a separate, formal dining room, a generously-sized family room with vaulted ceilings and a fireplace, and a large, lower-level flex space that's perfect for a home office, den, rec area, and more. Outside, prepare to be amazed by a backyard oasis straight out of a magazine spread. It's meticulously landscaped and features a brick-paver patio with a fire pit that's large enough for a dining table, sitting area and grill, making it perfect for relaxing and entertaining. The yard also offers ample space for a garden and comes with an Invisible Fence already installed for your furry friends (Invisible Fence subscription necessary). Situated on a quiet street, this home is in a prime location. Enjoy the convenience of being just minutes from the Metra station, local parks, shopping, dining, and sought-after schools. UPDATES: This home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated for a truly move-in ready experience. Recent improvements include all windows (2014-15), a new brick-paver patio (2016), and new hardwood floors in the family room (2022). Major appliances have also been updated, with a new refrigerator (2023), dishwasher (2021), microwave (2020), washer (2017), and water softener (2021). New chimney doors were installed in 2024, and the home is future-proofed with a new A/C (2025) and hot water heater (2020). Additional features include an attached garage and a large crawlspace for all your storage needs. This is more than a house; it's a lifestyle waiting to be discovered.
