About This Home

Beautiful home located in a coveted neighborhood in the heart of Des Plaines! Ideally located and just a short distance from the train, high-ranked schools, parks, and restaurants. This stunning expanded colonial has so much space and features 4 generously sized bedrooms, 2.1 baths, and a finished basement. The first floor features a gourmet kitchen with new stainless steel appliances (2026) that opens to a sun-filled family room. A cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a private office complete the main level. Upstairs, you will find a stunning primary suite-a true retreat-complete with vaulted ceilings and a private balcony overlooking the lush landscape and lower deck. The basement is built for entertainment or relaxing, featuring a home theater with a custom bar and a separate game room. The lower-level laundry room features a new washer and dryer (December 2025). The oversized fenced-in yard with charming perennial gardens is perfect for outdoor entertaining. Other updates include new basement furnace (2025). There is so much to offer in this home, and nothing left to do but move in!
