About This Home

As of November 2023

Does Home Sweet Home get much sweeter than this? Welcome to this expanded Cape Cod nestled on a beautifully landscaped 50'x150' lot on a quiet street that's just blocks from Elmhurst City Centre, Metra, parks, library, and more! Step inside and you'll find beautifully refinished floors and painted trim throughout the home, a spacious formal living room with large windows and crown molding, and a formal dining room that leads to the fantastic kitchen and great room. No matter what night it is - family night, game night, party night, holiday night - this is where everyone will want to gather! As chef, you can put on a show for the whole crowd while they sit at the large island as you utilize all of the maple cabinetry and stainless steel appliances. The granite counters and stone backsplash make everything you cook look pretty. The bar area with more cabinetry and beverage fridge helps keep the non-cooks out of the kitchen! You won't miss a beat, a conversation, or the winning touchdown because this is a fully open concept space with a terrific family room and eating area for all to enjoy. The gas fireplace with stone surround makes for a cozy focal point. A half bath with a brand new vanity rounds out the first floor. There are still plenty of days to enjoy outdoors so head out the sliding glass door to the terrific multi-tiered deck (freshly painted) and find the perfect spot to relax and look out into the beautiful backyard filled with lush perennials and lawn. After a long day, find the perfect retreats on the second floor. Two nice sized bedrooms with huge closets (with organizers) share a full bath, and the primary bedroom suite is something else. The massive bedroom offers two areas and lots of options - enjoy a restful sleep under the skylight, and the bonus area could be a home office, reading space, or workout area. The ensuite bath is like being at a spa! Heated floors, multi-jet shower with glass enclosure, and a double sink vanity with granite...divine! A huge walk-in closet with organizers rounds out this awesome suite. We aren't done yet! The finished basement offers two recreation spaces, a nice sized laundry room, and a large unfinished area that's perfect for storage. Going back outside you'll find a super spacious 2-car garage with pull down stairs that lead to an insulated and drywalled bonus room just waiting for you to find the perfect use for it! The yard is fenced on three sides (just add a gate across the driveway and you're set!). So yeah, this Home Sweet Home is pretty darn sweet! Finish off 2023 in style and say, "Welcome Home" today!
