About This Home

As of May 2024

Move-in ready, 4 bedroom, 2 bath wonderfully cared for, charming, older home waiting for new owners who will love this home as much as the current owners have. As you stand in the spacious entry, you will see the beautiful winding open staircase with charming window seat halfway up to the second level. The spacious living room, dining room, and entry have marvelous hardwood floors with large original floor molding; and the original library type pocket doors that still open and close with ease. You will love the long dining room window seat that opens for more storage. The kitchen was updated with new flooring, granite countertops, tile backsplash, rehabbed cabinets and new windows. Dining room opens to a large deck to better enjoy the large private backyard with a newly built outdoor shed. There is also a bonus room on the main floor that can serve as a TV room, office, or guest bedroom. You will find the largest bedroom on the second floor has a walk-in closet. The bathroom has been beautifully updated with new flooring, vanity, tile backsplash, and light fixture. You are so centrally located within easy walking distance to the library, Ellwood House, downtown DeKalb, the North Forty open spaces and a trail following the Kishwaukee River to NIU Campus. There is darling Raymond Park for little ones just a few blocks away and it is not even far to walk to Hopkins Park. Kitchen upgrade was in 2017, bathrooms - 2015 and 2021, roof and siding replaced in 2002, water heater - 2014, refrigerator - 2013, deck rebuilt in 2009 and stained in 2022, whole house duct cleaning - 2022, and new driveway in 2023.
