About This Home
As of March 2026Welcome to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath split-level home set on a charming, tree-lined street in desirable North Wheaton. Thoughtful updates, great natural light, and a functional layout make this home truly move-in ready. The main level features bright, open living spaces and an updated kitchen with updated countertops, newer appliances, and a breakfast bar that opens to the dining and living areas. Refinished hardwood floors, fresh neutral paint, and updated lighting create a clean, modern feel throughout the main and upper levels. Upstairs offers three comfortable bedrooms with generous closet space and a renovated hall bath featuring a double-sink vanity with quartz countertop and classic tile finishes. The walk-out lower level provides excellent additional living space with a cozy family room, fireplace, full bath, and laundry area, ideal for entertaining, guests, or everyday living. A standout feature is the inviting three-season sunroom with a knotty pine ceiling and sliding doors leading to the patio and fully fenced backyard, perfect for morning coffee or summer gatherings. Mature landscaping enhances both privacy and curb appeal. Major improvements include refinished hardwood floors, fresh interior paint, updated electrical panel, washer and dryer, gutter guards, roof, siding, windows, garage door, and storm doors. Ideally located just blocks from downtown Wheaton, Metra train, shopping, dining, and award-winning District 200 schools, including a short walk to Hawthorne Elementary. A wonderful opportunity in an unbeatable location.
