Welcome to 4740 Douglas Rd - a fully renovated home in one of Downers Grove's most sought-after locations that has only gotten better since its stunning 2020 rehab. The main level sets the tone immediately with large wood plank flooring, designer lighting, custom trim work, and incredible windows that flood the space with natural light. The gourmet kitchen is the heart of the home - featuring quartz countertops, high-end stainless steel appliances (2020), a 36" Thermador range, 42" white Shaker cabinetry, pantry, an island with seating, and new recessed can lighting. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining room, which features a custom wet bar with additional cabinetry and wine storage - perfect for entertaining. The living room is expansive and open, and what was once a four seasons room has been converted into fully finished living space (2024) with vaulted ceilings and French doors, adding significant square footage and making this home feel even larger than it looks. A fully rehabbed full bath with an oversized glass shower rounds out the main level beautifully. A built-in bookshelf adds a custom touch throughout. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is a true retreat - featuring two walk-in closets, including a second massive walk-in closet converted from attic space, hardwood flooring, and a ceiling fan. Two additional bedrooms feature refinished hardwood floors and updated window treatments. The upper level was fully refreshed in 2022. The finished lower level is ideal for a home office or playroom. Outside, the professionally landscaped backyard (2023) features a Trex deck - a perfect space to unwind and entertain. The major systems are where this home really shines: dual zoned HVAC with two furnaces and two A/C units (2021), updated plumbing (2021), new roof on both the home and garage (2023), new water heater (2025), and new washer and dryer (2025). A 2-car garage with built-in shelving complete the package. Walk to Lester Elementary, Hummer Park, and the Metra train. Minutes to a vibrant downtown Downers Grove with theater, restaurants, and shopping. Assigned to highly rated schools. A home this updated, this well-located, and this move-in ready doesn't come around often.
