About This Home
Discover this charming Cape Cod home filled with character and filled with recent updates, located just a short walk to Downtown Wheaton and the Metra Train. And just steps to Emerson Elementary and Monroe Middle School. Although the address is on Manchester, the home faces the tranquil Knollwood Drive, with the driveway and front door positioned on this quiet street. Numerous updates have been made (Fully Permitted by Wheaton!) Enjoy the advantages of a new furnace and air conditioning, along with a complete electrical overhaul that includes a 200 amp panel and new lighting throughout the home. The entire house has been freshly painted, showcasing its appeal. The kitchen was taken down to studs and transformed with quartz countertops, new cabinets & fashionable shelving, a stylish backsplash, and new appliances including a refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher, complemented by an inviting eat-in dining area. The first-floor bedroom features lovely hardwood floors and is conveniently located adjacent to the updated first-floor bathroom. The expansive sunroom has been taken down to studs & fully transformed, featuring a barn door at the entry, a new sliding door, a new arbor window, new carpet, new lighting, and beautiful brick accent walls. In addition to the sunroom, the home boasts a bright and sunny living room. Upstairs, you will find two bedrooms with ample built-in cabinets, new ceilings, newly insulated attic & attic an and a second bathroom. Additional updates include enhanced ducting, a new 1.5-car Danley-built detached garage, a TimberTech deck, a new front porch, and a new door leading from the backyard to the basement, among many others. And no need to buy window treatments here! The blinds on the first floor are bottom up and top down, plenty of privacy but letting in the light. The primary bedroom blinds are room-darkening. And upstairs, blinds are bottom up and room-darkening. This home is a must-see and should be on your list this weekend. All updates completed between 4/23/23 & 12/31/25. Roof / Gutters ~ 2020 according to previous seller.
