About This Home

The Best-Maintained Home in LaSalle-Hands Down!! One-owner home. Forty years of love, care, and constant attention to every single detail. This isn't just a house-it's a legacy of immaculate maintenance and pride of ownership, and it shows in every inch. Originally a 3-bedroom, this home is now a 2-bedroom + den (or family room) with 2 full bathrooms, thanks to a thoughtful layout change that brought the laundry upstairs for convenience. The living room features a stunning jewel ember fireplace and rich bamboo flooring, the kitchen and dining area, boasts ceramic tile plus freshly updated cabinets, new backsplash and gleaming stainless steel appliances. Every surface, every corner-elevated and enhanced with beautiful, tasteful updates. And for those of you with allergies, there is not one piece of carpet in this home. The basement is a full blank canvas, with built-in shelving, a gas line, and enough space (and plumbing potential) to create a whole second living space-perfect for in-laws, guests, hobbies, or future income possibilities. Now let's talk about the yard-because wow. Professionally landscaped, meticulously maintained, and easily one of the most gorgeous yards in LaSalle. An irrigation system keeps both front and back looking pristine, and a brand-new, high-end motorized Sunsetter awning adds shade and style to your expansive patio, aka outdoor relaxation zone. Additional highlights include: Epoxy-finished garage floor-perfect for projects, toys, or serious workshop goals add a heater and you'll have yourself a man cave or "she shed" to escape to. French drain connected to the sump pump-no shortcuts here. Radon mitigation system and owned water softener, Roof is less than 10 years old, Water heater just a few years old, several appliances still under warranty. This home has been upgraded constantly and lovingly, with no corners cut and no expense spared. It's clean, it's solid, and it's ready for someone who appreciates the difference between "move-in ready" and "absolutely immaculate."
