About This Home

As of April 2020

Rare find in desirable Elmhurst neighborhood, walking distance to Field Elementary School, Downtown Elmhurst, East End Park and the Metra. Starting in 2015, this brick and stone Tudor was renovated with modern finishes while still maintaining its original charm. The first floor was thoughtfully redesigned to create a cohesive kitchen and dining space. A sliding door was added in dining room for easy outdoor access and natural light throughout. The main level also hosts a bedroom and half bath. Upstairs you will find two large bedrooms, both with generous closet space and a newly tiled bath. The finished basement provides additional living space and a second full bath with walk-in shower. Rear entry door to the basement walks out to a HUGE backyard with mature, easy maintenance trees and landscaping. Renovations include: new kitchen (2015), baths (2015), updated electrical and plumbing (2015), water heater (2015), central air (2016), roof (2016), windows (2016), new brick paver patio (2018), and a front entry door (2019).
