Description

Refreshed! Take a glamorous step back in time. One of the most sought after areas in Wheaton and nestled on one of the towns shortest streets! Meticulously maintained for historical integrity and decorated tastefully. You'll be impressed the minute you step into the amazing foyer. You'll fall in love upon being greeted by an elegant and historic curving staircase along with gorgeous original oak hardwood floors that flow through the home. The formal dining room features awesome mill-work and built-ins. This dining room returns elegance to formal entertainment. As you stroll through this amazing home you will notice a perfect blend of thoughtfully restored vintage and modern enhancements. Opposite of the dining room is the living room and flowing right into a custom oversized den which connects you to the outdoors and the beautiful backyard. Off the den is a unique "middle room" office, surely one of the highlights of this home especially for today's lifestyle! The former owner of this home owned a chain of bakeries - this is truly a kitchen for cooking! A blend of updated cabinets and almost 100 year old antique stainless steel counter tops along with high-end stainless steel appliances. Not just a chefs kitchen but the perfect gathering space which opens to the cozy den, perfect for entertaining! From here there is an entry to the backyard cement patio in your own quiet oasis. Back inside and around the corner is the powder room with the original corner sink! Upstairs on the second level there are 3 bedrooms and a hall bathroom. The master bedroom features an amazing walk-in closet and a full bathroom. Your tour does not end there... make your way to the attic for an amazing surprise. You will find bonus space (bedrooms 4 and 5) for a play room, guest bedroom or craft room all with a full bathroom! Keep exploring and make your way to the basement and you will discover a family room with platform seating for movie night! In the next room is a perfect work shop. Another half bathroom finishes off the lower level. Back outside, one more surprise... Attached to the garage is a cigar lounge! Don't smoke? Say hello to your future garden room, setting room or just some additional storage. Conveniently located close to all three schools, parks and downtown - shops, restaurants and Metra including express train to downtown Chicago. Don't just buy a house - buy the charm, location and lifestyle! Live at 1020 Wheaton Place and make it a wonderful life!
