Description

Victorian Elegance Steps from the Heart of Elmhurst. Experience the distinguished charm of this updated Victorian residence, ideally positioned on prestigious Evergreen Street-just 3.5 blocks from dynamic Downtown Elmhurst. This architectural landmark blends timeless character with forward-thinking upgrades, including a flawless addition, newer windows, siding, and roof-all executed with exceptional craftsmanship. Lead guests through the iconic wrap-around porch with recessed lighting and into an interior that radiates sophistication: a grand oak staircase, refined trim details, solid oak doors, and richly finished hardwood floors. A sun-drenched loft/library offers a serene escape, while the expansive family room with a brick fireplace is the ideal backdrop for meaningful gatherings. The private primary suite is a refined retreat, featuring a spa-inspired en-suite bath and a generous walk-in closet. French doors open to a sprawling deck and a professionally landscaped, fully fenced yard. Oversized 2.5-car garage, discreetly accessed from the alley, enhances function without compromising curb appeal. Set among newer luxury homes and within the highly acclaimed Hawthorne/Sandburg school district, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is more than a residence-a legacy of excellence in one of Elmhurst's most coveted locations.
