About This Home
Timeless Tudor charm meets thoughtful updates in a prime "in-town" location! With its storybook curb appeal, this classic Tudor is nestled on a coveted, close-to-everything street, well-known for its neighborhood block parties! Inside, you'll find a home that offers modern convenience yet still retains the warmth and character that makes Tudors so special. A quality 2003 addition opened the floor plan with a sun-filled family room, serene primary suite, and added finished basement space. Hardwood floors and rich wood trim flow throughout, enhancing the traditional living and dining rooms, versatile main-floor bedroom/office, and convenient half bath. Upstairs, find three spacious bedrooms with excellent closet space, two full baths, and a serene primary suite added in 2003. In total, the home boasts 3.1 baths. The lower-level features two inviting hang-out spaces - the original finished rec room and a cozy TV room - perfect for movie nights, game days, or hobbies. Peace-of-mind updates include complete tear-off roof (2020), two new AC units (2021), high quality back door (2022), new windows in original bedrooms (2023), and full exterior paint for the house and garage (2023). All of this in a location that puts parks, the Prairie Path, schools, library, dining, shopping, and the train just steps from your door. Pride of ownership truly sparkles in this well-loved home with character, substance, and endless potential, in one of the most desirable neighborhoods. Imagine the possibilities!
