About This Home
This beautifully updated 2 bed, 2 bath condo in the sought-after Glen Astor building sits right in the heart of downtown Glen Ellyn. With nearly 1,800 square feet, the open layout features Brazilian cherry hardwood floors throughout, 10-foot ceilings throughout main living space, fresh paint, stylish light fixtures, a cozy gas fireplace, and built-in bookshelves that add both charm and functionality. The updated kitchen includes pristine stainless steel appliances and marble floors and backsplash, and the in-unit laundry room offers full-size machines...something unique to this building in Glen Ellyn. A spacious dining area is perfect for entertaining, while the bright living room opens to a private balcony. There's also a versatile flex room with its own fireplace, ideal as a home office, den, or reading nook. The oversized primary suite includes a walk-in closet, double vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower. Glen Astor is a full-service, elevator building with a dedicated storage space conveniently located on the third floor near the unit and also includes two parking spaces: one garage space (P3) and one outdoor spot (E12), as well as a lobby renovation currently underway. Just steps from Glen Ellyn's shops, restaurants, movie theater, Prairie Path, and Lake Ellyn, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy both comfort and convenience in a meticulously cared-for home and building!
