About This Home

As of April 2025

Nestled in the heart of North Wheaton, this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers over 2,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. Located just moments from the train, Prairie Path, and Lincoln Marsh, this home blends vintage charm with modern upgrades. Craftsman-style trim, 9 foot ceilings and refinished hardwood floors add warmth and character, while the freshly painted interior enhances its bright and inviting atmosphere. Recent updates include a new tear-off roof on the house, back porch, and garage, along with all-new gutters. The front of the home boasts new Hardie board siding, a newly added porch with an awning, and new storm door with side lights. New windows in the living room, and all of the 2nd floor including the skylights. The kitchen has been completely renovated with new white shaker cabinetry, farmhouse sink, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, while updated bathrooms offer modern style and finishes. A new electrical panel and service, along with updated outlets and switches. Every light fixture inside and out has been replaced. Outdoor space offers extensive landscaping and the deep lot features a spacious wooded backyard with a charming brick paver fire pit overlooking the little creek, perfect for outdoor entertaining. The basement has been professionally waterproofed by Permaseal, featuring drain tile, a wall liner, and two sump pumps, ready to be finished by the next buyer. This home is within walking distance to the desirable Longfellow Elementary School, and offers a prime location close to town and to nature, making it a truly exceptional find for the price.
