About This Home

As of May 2023

FOLLOW THE VINTAGE, BRICK-PAVED, ONE-WAY STREET AND YOU WILL FIND THIS BEAUTIFUL 5 BEDROOM, 3 BATH, TWO-STORY HOME IN A WELL-ESTABLISHED, QUAINT NEIGHBORHOOD. Such a great location, in the historic district, as it is close to downtown and all it has to offer... the library, restaurants, shopping, playground, schools, the Historic Egyptian Theater, and the Ellwood House Museum and property for enjoying the holidays and summer music. Close proximity to bus lines, bike path, I-88 access, and Northern Illinois University as well! This home has been well cared for and loved, and is waiting for you to make it your own! Enjoy your morning beverage on the covered front porch and welcome your friends and family inside to the lovely foyer with open staircase, gorgeous hardwood floors, crown molding, 9' ceilings, tall baseboards, white trim, numerous windows, and fresh paint! You may even find a Harry Potter closet! The main level of this home offers a large living room with a picture window, family room, separate formal dining room with a wonderful bay window, kitchen with built-in cabinetry, appliances, and room for an island if desired, and a full bath with shower, laundry, complete with washer and dryer. The second level can be accessed from either the front or back staircase. As you take the front staircase to the second level, the sun shining through the abundant windows will brighten your day and warm you! The four upstairs bedrooms all have ceiling fans, lights, and abundant closets, including two walk-in-closets! French doors off one of the bedrooms will bring you to the sleeping porch/sunroom/office/exercise room...whatever you wish to use it for! Spacious full bath on this level with a generous-sized tub/shower, and another large hallway closet. There is a full, unfinished attic as well and definitely more to this home ...a full basement with front and back separate entries. Here you will find a living/dining/kitchen space with refrigerator, stove, and sink. The 5th bedroom has an egress window, sink, closet, and built-in cabinetry. This level also provides a third full bath with shower, an extra room for an office or storage, additional storage room, and a second laundry area with wash sink and washer. This could be an in-law apartment or separate office or living arrangement for a family member or friend! Fresh interior paint, floors have recently been refinished, two water heaters, two refrigerators, and two stoves, and the roof is 4-5 years new. Step outside through the enclosed back porch and get ready to enjoy hundreds of perennial flowers and plants, raspberry bushes, and even a rain garden! Enjoy the spacious yard for gardening, playing or just relaxing! Patio, two-car garage with separation wall and an attic loft for more storage! This home is spacious, has tons of storage, and has so much to offer! The current owners have loved this home and now it's your turn...
