Description

Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this lovingly maintained 4-bedroom home sits on an expansive, beautifully landscaped lot-offering rare space, privacy, and charm, all just minutes from everything. Owned by the same family for 40 years, the pride of ownership is evident throughout. As you arrive, the home's character greets you immediately with a large covered front porch and double entry doors. Step inside to a spacious foyer that opens to a light-filled living room, featuring a wall of windows that flood the space with natural light. A formal dining room sits just off the living room, ideal for entertaining and holiday gatherings. The kitchen is centrally located with plenty of cabinetry and room for a table, while a few steps down brings you to the cozy family room with views of the lush, private backyard. From here, a sliding glass door leads to the patio, perfect for outdoor relaxation and entertaining. A convenient powder room completes this level. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with two closets and a private bath featuring a walk-in shower. Just outside the primary suite, there's even an extra walk-in closet for added storage. The second bedroom is nearly the same size and also includes a walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms and a large hall bath also sit upstairs. The finished basement offers a flexible space for recreation, a game room, or an additional hangout area. You'll also find the laundry area and a large crawl space perfect for extra storage. This one-of-a-kind lot offers a serene setting in a prime location. Walk to Kingsley Elementary, Downers Grove South High School, and several nearby parks and sports courts. A truly special opportunity in a sought-after neighborhood! Selling AS-IS.
