Tucked away at the end of a quiet dead-end street and not far from downtown Villa Park, this lovingly maintained home offers a rare combination of privacy, convenience, and charm. Set on over a quarter acre, the serene yard features a small pond with a meditative waterfall, lush with lilies and other beautiful flowers, and plenty of green space - an ideal retreat for nature lovers. The oversized garage is a standout with its impressive overhead 8' door height - perfect for taller vehicles or hobbyists - and includes a huge loft above for abundant storage. Two additional parking spaces on a separate parking pad add to the home's functionality. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors throughout all bedrooms, living room, and eat-in kitchen. Thoughtful updates over the past decade ensure comfort and style, while preserving the home's original warmth. There's a walkout basement, a walk-up attic, and a whole house fan, to name a few special features of this home. (A complete list is available in the additional documents.) The seller, only the second owner, has cared deeply for this home, and it shows. This is a rare opportunity to own a property that blends privacy, space, and access to area restaurants and entertainment, as well as highways in all directions. Don't miss this opportunity!
