About This Home

As of December 2023

This well-maintained ranch is conveniently located just 1/2 block from East End Park and the community pool, making it easy for residents to enjoy outdoor activities and recreation. It's also close to expressways for easy commuting. Especially for those who travel from O'Hare Airport. Additionally, it's within a half-mile walk to the newly built Field Elementary School, which is great for families with children. Lastly, the house is a leisurely walk away from downtown Elmhurst, and Metra Station providing easy access to shops, restaurants, and other amenities. It is only a 15-minute drive to O'Hare and about 5-10 minutes from the Eisenhower Expressway. The house features newly refinished hardwood floors throughout. Electrical for whole house updated. There's also a basement that includes a hand-built brick fireplace, and plenty of storage space including built-in shelves and laundry room. The inclusion of a Generac generator is a great feature, as it ensures a backup power source during outages, adding to the convenience and peace of mind of the homeowners. There is also a whole-house manual check valve which is designed to prevent flooding in the home during continuous heavy rain storms. The backyard has brick pavers and beautiful green space to enjoy time outdoors as well. This is an estate sale and sold as is. The owner has purchased the solar panels in full. Overall, this three-bedroom ranch seems to offer a combination of comfortable living spaces, convenient features, and a desirable location, making it an attractive option for potential buyers or renters in Elmhurst. This is an Estate sale so it is as is.
