Description
Welcome to this hard-to-find quad-level home, lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated by its longtime owner. From the moment you arrive, the professionally landscaped grounds, outdoor lighting, decorative Street Print driveway, and brick-arched mailbox reflect the care that has been given to this home. Step inside to a welcoming foyer and a bright main level where hardwood floors extend through the living room, dining room, and kitchen. The kitchen was completely remodeled in 2012 with granite countertops, updated cabinetry, GE Profile appliances, replacement windows, and a new patio door. The living and dining room windows were also replaced with sun-screening glass, and custom window treatments add a polished finishing touch throughout the main living areas. The kitchen opens to a wonderful screened porch with access from both the front and backyard. Updated doors and a newer roof make this an inviting place to enjoy morning coffee, evening meals, or quiet views of the expansive fenced yard. Just beyond the porch are a patio, professional landscaping, and a maintenance-free sided storage shed. Upstairs, you will find three comfortable bedrooms with hardwood floors, ceiling fans, replacement windows, and a beautifully remodeled full bath. A few steps down, the spacious family room offers a warm and comfortable gathering space centered around a high-end Heat & Glo gas fireplace. The remote-controlled fireplace allows you to adjust the flame, lighting, and heat for year-round enjoyment. This level also includes a second fully remodeled bath and a versatile bonus room previously used as an office. Although compact, it would work nicely as a private study, den, playroom, craft room, or additional storage space. Both full bathrooms were completely remodeled in 2019 with granite, updated cabinetry, ceramic-tiled walls and floors, and replacement windows. The sub-basement provides even more usable space with a recreation area, abundant storage, and a dedicated laundry area with Electrolux washer and dryer. An attached 2.5-car garage offers additional storage and convenient access to the backyard. Important improvements include replacement windows in 2012, air conditioning installed in 2010, water heater replaced in 2020, roof, gutters, and fascia replaced in 2021, and upgrades to the home's boiler system in 2024. The home also features custom window treatments in the living room, dining room, kitchen, family room, and office, ceiling fans in the bedrooms, kitchen, and family room, plus 10-year combination smoke and carbon monoxide alarms installed in 2023. Located in a quiet unincorporated neighborhood with 2025 property taxes of approximately $6,135, the home is around the block from District 128 elementary schools and less than a mile from District 218 high schools. With its spacious fenced yard, four distinct levels of living space, beautifully updated kitchen and baths, and a long list of carefully completed improvements, this home is ready to welcome its next owner. (Pool table and air hockey table in basement, and garage refrigerator are included in the sale.)
