Just a short walk from Downtown Wheaton, this unique home is situated across from a peaceful park with walkways, fishing ponds, playground, and baseball field. Its porch invites you to the front row seats, where you can relax and take it all in. Step inside to gleaming original hardwood floors; high ceilings with crown molding; and freshly painted walls. The front sunroom commands your attention and enjoyment, proudly displaying the fantastic park view from its original swing open windows. The living room with wood-burning fireplace provides a delightful entertaining and lounging area. It is open to the lovely dining room, which is graced with an original built-in Curio cabinet that is sure to be a talking point, while providing a most attractive serving area! The large cheerful Family Room on the side is bright even on cloudy days by virtue of the skylights, and provides your rec room for those days when nothing can be better than staying home. The kitchen overlooks the back yard and includes an eat-in area, granite counter, quality custom soft-close cabinets, Stainless Steel appliances (including a quiet Bosch dishwasher), Cafe stove, tile backsplash, and farm-style sink. The main floor includes a bedroom with view of the park, and another smaller bedroom, which may be best used as an office or den. This room's glass door makes it feel bigger while it filters out noise. Upstairs, the large master suite is a true getaway, providing perfect views of the park and pond. This room has two huge walk-in closets. Included in the master bath is a dry sauna for your health and relaxation. The attached enclosed heated balcony with picture window is one more pleasant surprise, and leads to a bonus walk-out balcony. There is a pretty glass door at the bottom of the steps for your privacy. The basement has endless potential, with more rooms that could be used as bedrooms, with a roughed-in bathroom (toilet is there and can be easily hooked up), and extra storage, laundry area, and work-space. Back outside, enjoy the private partially fenced backyard shaded by mature trees. A brick patio, two sheds, natural gas for your grill, and a fire pit complete your summer evenings. A home in such an amazing location with room for your own improvements is a rare find indeed, and will not only prove to be one of the best investments you ever make, but serve as the home you love for many years to come!
