About This Home
As of October 2024Located on the coveted 4th OF JULY PARADE ROUTE!! Wonderful in-town location. Two blocks east of the town and train. Five blocks from the lake, Artesian park, and tennis courts. Six blocks to the middle school. Easy access to the high school, highway, and tollway. Hardwood floors throughout home. This spacious home offers a great room addition with vaulted ceiling and floor to ceiling brick fireplace. First floor office/bedroom. The second floor offers three bedrooms with an updated full bath. The finished third floor offers another bedroom with full bath. The lower level has a deep pour, wonderful recreation room with a fireplace, in addition to the original part of the basement. Some of the more recent updates include: -newer hardwood floors in the great room and rest of hardwood have been refinished, -recreation room with newer flooring, -powder room and second floor bath -chimney flue with new ceramic logs, -hard wired home for network, -tankless hot water heater, - electrical box, -foam insulation in attic eaves, -sewer clean out, - Roof new in 2023 as well as exterior painting. Presently, the owners use one of the bedrooms on the second floor as the primary, however, the third floor could be used as the primary as well with its own private bath. LOCATION, SPACE, UPDATES all make this the ONE! If expansion is desired, the cathedral ceiling above the great room could be lowered and a primary suite addition off the back of the second floor.
