About This Home

As of September 2025

Welcome home to this picture-perfect, move-in ready ranch, flooded with natural light and located on one of Northfield's most coveted streets. Nearly every inch of this charming home has been updated in the past three years, including the kitchen and baths, new flooring throughout, Hardie board siding, new mechanicals, and modern appliances. The curb appeal is undeniable, with a brand-new front walkway and lush landscaping setting the stage. Step inside to a gorgeous living room anchored by a cozy fireplace and framed by a large picture window. Adjacent is a separate dining room offering the perfect setting for gatherings and special occasions. The updated kitchen is a cook's delight, featuring abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and a convenient island with seating. The true showstopper is the light-filled sun/family room, complete with an adorable built-in banquette for casual meals. The primary suite is thoughtfully tucked away down the hall, offering privacy and a renovated en suite bath. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath with a tub, while two hallway closets and pull-down attic stairs provide extra storage options. Step outside to your private, fully fenced backyard oasis-complete with a brand-new patio, fire pit, and seating area-perfect for relaxing or entertaining. All of this is ideally located within walking distance to downtown Northfield, Clarkson Park, Middlefork Elementary, the Forest Preserve, and just minutes to I-94. Plus, you'll enjoy the benefits of the award-winning New Trier High School district.
