Description

Be wowed by the dynamic design of this 3 bedroom, 1.1 bath, Mid-Century Modern all brick home in the College View Subdivision. Conveniently located on a dead end street and within walking distance from NIU. From the moment you set foot on the concrete driveway, you are greeted by the private front garden with evergreen hedges and perennials that match the original design of the house. This home brings you back to the "Happy Days" with its ageless vintage feel throughout. Stepping into the foyer and onto refinished pegged wood floors that lead to the hallway and living room. The living room is just the perfect place to settle down with your laptop or cozy up to the brick gas log fireplace while watching the seasons unfold in the backyard through the AMAZING floor to ceiling windows that reach around the corner. Kitchen offers the original St. Charles metal cabinetry and was lovingly modernized with great sensibility for the original design with the updated cooktop, SS fridge and dishwasher as well as the updated vinyl wood flooring that extends from the kitchen, dining, and utility room to the powder room. The 3 bedrooms have refinished, original wood floors with windows in each room that are artworks by themselves. Large 2 car garage with new garage door 2019. A/C unit 2018, water heater 2021.
