About This Home
As of December 2025This fully renovated and exceptionally decorated home offers the perfect blend of charm and thoughtful design throughout - and is bigger than it looks! An extensive renovation by Scott Walker/McMurray Construction included a timeless kitchen/primary suite addition and re-configuring of the first floor to add a mud room, desk area and powder room. The casual living room with fireplace and built-ins has a large window overlooking the quiet tree-lined street. A stunning formal dining room seats 8 or more and conveniently leads to the custom kitchen with table space, a large island with seating, beverage refrigerator and high end appliances. With abundant storage and wonderful circulation space, this kitchen is perfect for entertaining - and leads to the new maintenance-free Trex deck with seating. Upstairs you will find a sun-filled primary suite with double walk in closet and beautiful primary bath. The second floor offers two additional nicely-sized bedrooms and a renovated hall bath. The lower level offers a casual family room, laundry and generaous storage. Fantastic location just 3 blocks to Central Street Metra, shops & restaurants. Don't miss the annual block party and easy walk to schools. Welcome home!
