Overview
Discover the perfect blend of convenience and comfort in this move-in-ready, well-maintained home. Nestled in a prime location within a quiet, established neighborhood, this residence offers an enviable lifestyle just steps away from local parks, including the amenity-rich Centennial Park. Inside, enjoy a thoughtful layout featuring spacious bedrooms, beautiful hardwood flooring (updated 2017), and built-in surround sound on the main level. The heart of the home is the thoughtfully remodeled kitchen (2010), boasting rich hickory floors, maple cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. A standout feature of this property is the brick addition, providing a main-level bedroom with a private bathroom-perfect for easy, stair-free living, a guest retreat, or a flexible multi-generational space. Both bathrooms were upgraded in 2017 with a sleek, modern look, including a luxurious stone shower. Extending your living space throughout the year is the charming four-season room addition, fully equipped with heat and air conditioning. This relaxing retreat features Colorado exterior cordless sun shades constructed from material designed to block heat while allowing airflow. The material is engineered to filter light, reducing interior glare without darkening the room completely. True peace of mind comes standard here. Interior features have been enhanced with recessed lighting, and the electrical system has been updated for modern reliability. Recent mechanical upgrades include a plumbing repipe with high-quality copper piping (2017) and a 2016 sump pump. The main roof was a complete tear-off in 2010 (house and garage). For the flat roof addition, a specialized liquid roof coating was applied. This engineered, thick, rubber-like membrane provides premium waterproofing, UV protection, and the ability to expand and contract with temperature changes-ensuring durability and preventing the cracking or peeling associated with inferior materials. The oversized, heated, drywalled, and insulated 30x22 garage (with 9-foot ceilings and an 8x18 door) is a standout feature, providing exceptional space for vehicles, a workshop, or hobby storage. Future-proofed and EV-ready, the garage features convenient 220V service, providing a cost-effective, plug-and-play solution for future electric vehicle (EV) charging or heavy-duty workshop equipment, along with additional storage space that is easily accessed. Outdoor living is easy with a private backyard oasis. The outdoor space features a built-in natural gas grill hookup, perfect for entertaining on the patio under the remote-controlled retractable awning.Located within the highly regarded Maine West High School district, this home is within easy reach of shopping, dining, and the scenic Des Plaines River Trail. Known as the crown jewel of local cycling, the trail provides an extensive, scenic gravel path that winds through multiple forest preserves, perfect for both leisurely rides and longer, more dedicated cycling adventures. Experience a lifestyle of ease and accessibility-this home is truly a must-see. Schedule your private tour today!
