About This Home

As of February 2025

This spacious 5 bedroom, 3 bath home, only 3-minute walk to highly rated Westfield Elementary, has been transformed with an extensive and thoughtful remodel - NEW refurbished and refinished hardwood floors; NEW on-trend paint colors throughout; NEW 6-panel doors and hardware for every room in the house; NEW closet doors and hardware in every bedroom; NEW stainless steel appliances in the kitchen; and NEW beautiful front door with sidelites. In addition, all three full bathrooms have been updated, whether new vanities, new lighting, new paint or new plumbing fixtures. On the outside, NEW professionally landscaped features surround the house on all sides. Property is situated on nearly quarter of an acre with mature trees. In this split-level raised ranch, the upper floor has spacious, open living and dining room with floor-to-ceiling windows creating an abundance of natural light. Down the hall are three bedrooms with a hall bath and ensuite bath for the primary bedroom. On the lower level, enjoy the large 22' x 14' family room with floor-to-ceiling windows with walk-out access to patio and peaceful, private, fenced-in backyard. Two more bedrooms on this level with a full hall bath create versatile spaces with options for a home office, exercise room, craft room or privacy for overnight guests when friends or family are in town. Located in the tranquil Butterfield West Subdivision, this home is only a few minutes' drive to both Glen Crest Middle School and Glenbard South High School. You'll enjoy being close to Lombard Golf Course, Butterfield Park District Pool, and the 1,700 acres of beauty at The Morton Arboretum. Easy access to Interstate I-355, I-88, and shopping and restaurants at Yorktown Mall and Oakbrook Center. On this street, in this neighborhood, in this beautifully remodeled home, this is truly a great opportunity.
