Light pours in from every angle of the spacious great room featuring soaring 10-foot vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, pecky cypress walls, gas fireplace with floor-to-ceiling brick surround, and top-down blinds. The dining area flows into an updated kitchen with two-toned cabinets, Italian granite counters, subway tile, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry that doubles as a baker's nook. On the main level, you'll find 2 bedrooms with custom Closets by Design systems, an updated bath, and a 3-season sunroom that's perfect for lounging or additional office space. Upstairs offers 2 additional bedrooms and a full bath, while the newly finished basement provides 429 square feet of flexible space to use for a home office/tv room/craft space with built-in storage, recessed lighting, and a newer second fridge and washer/dryer. Outside, the fully fenced yard with mature trees and a brick paver patio is perfect for summer grilling and fall fire pits. Major updates include a brand new 30-year roof and gutters (2024), finished basement, new washer/dryer, new 200-amp electrical, yard drainage, and copper water supply lines (2023), EverDry waterproofing with transferable warranty and a new sump pump (2022). One-car garage included. Walk to the Braeside Metra, Botanic Garden, and nearby forest preserves, and only one mile to the lake. Ravinia is just one stop north. This is the kind of home that feels good from the moment you step inside. Well cared for, full of character, and ready for its next chapter!
