Nestled in the heart of Fox River Grove, this 1.91-acre gem is a rare find, designed specifically for those seeking the art of "slow living." Step inside to find a home that glows with warmth. The freshly painted interior is highlighted by beautifully re-sanded and stained hardwood floors that flow from the entryway into a cozy adjoining reading nook. The centerpiece of the living room is the lovely picture window which serves as living art, offering front-row seats to the changing seasons and the frequent visits from local wildlife-from mama deer's and their does, to turkeys and turtles, to curious chipmunks, to songbirds in the mornings. This home offers the charm and classic aesthetics one finds in a 1.5 story Cap Cod. The main floor offers a large foyer with vaulted ceiling and flex space that leads out to the deck, an open kitchen with an island, generous dining space, and corner windows that brings in the morning light. The wider hallway leads to the primary and 2nd bedrooms, main floor bathroom, and living room with wood burning fireplace. The finished lower level has newly installed LVP flooring and offers a possible 5th bedroom / flex space with 2 closets and a beautiful single glass pane French door. The addition of a 3/4 bathroom is a welcomed addition as well. And for the "weekend warriors," the oversized and deep detached 2-car garage is the ultimate hub for heavy-duty projects, side businesses, landscaping equipment, or if you have summer & winter "toys" that you storage offsite, bring them home. Whether you're a woodworker, a car enthusiast, or an entrepreneur, this space is ready to work as hard as you do. Spend your mornings, afternoons, or evenings on the recently painted deck which features modern cable railings that ensures your view of the massive nature-filled backyard remains unobstructed. From the quiet rustle of the trees to the top-tier updates, every detail of this property invites you to exhale and stay a while. Welcome home!
