Description

Freshly renovated and move-in ready, this Bruce Lake split level sits on a deep 0.71 acre lot in unincorporated Downers Grove with a two tier deck, and oversized 28 x 25 attached garage. The freshly stained charcoal gray exterior, new landscaping, foundation plantings, and new driveway set the stage for the 2025 interior renovation. Inside, the main level offers a bright living room and sitting area, refinished and seamlessly matched hardwood floors, and a dining area that overlooks the expansive yard. The light and bright kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring 42 inch Shaker cabinetry with pantry and pullout storage and a peninsula with seating for four. Quartz counters and a full height quartz backsplash with mosaic accent create a polished look, paired with stainless LG French door refrigerator, LG dishwasher, 5 burner gas range with vent hood, and Sharp microwave drawer. A double bowl sink with Insinkerator disposal and recessed lighting complete this well-designed workspace. Upstairs you will find four generous bedrooms with refinished hardwoods, new trim, 2025 windows with blinds, and remote controlled ceiling fandeliers. The spa-style primary bath features all new finishes, including a step-in shower with glass door and a private water closet. The stylish hall bath is fully updated with a new tub/shower, tile, and fixtures, while the lower-level bath offers new fixtures and the original step-in shower. The finished walkout lower level adds a comfortable family room and flex space, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a finished laundry room. From this level you step directly out to the lower deck, approximately 25 x 24, which connects by stairs to an upper deck of approximately 20 x 12 off the kitchen sitting area, creating a true extension of the living space for outdoor dining, relaxing, and enjoying the yard. Recent mechanical and system updates include all new windows in 2025, a newer asphalt shingle roof with updated soffits and buried downspouts, 2024 air conditioner, brand new 2025 water heater, new water softener, and an updated 100 amp electric panel. Additional features include a Carrier furnace, whole house fan, and private well and septic with a newly installed riser for improved access. The sump pump is located in the oversized garage, which also offers abundant storage and potential workspace. Set on a generous lot, this home enjoys a large tree buffer along the east side that provides excellent privacy and a peaceful natural backdrop. The property is only partially in a flood zone, limited to a portion of the back yard. In the Bruce Lake subdivision, residents enjoy Bruce Lake amenities including a residents-only beach, sand volleyball, fishing, seasonal ice skating when conditions allow, and neighborhood social activities. The location is very convenient, with Prairieview Elementary and Lakeview Junior High just across Plainfield Road, as well as easy access to McCollum Park, downtown Downers Grove, and the Metra. Nearby amenities include Route 83 into Oak Brook for shopping and dining, the Promenade Bolingbrook, and 75th Street conveniences such as Dunkin Donuts for morning coffee and a variety of nearby dining options. A video tour and detailed floor plans are available in the MLS listing so you can see how well this home lives before you visit in person.
