About This Home
Get ready to fall in love, this home is AMAZING! The screened-in porch is a sun-filled sanctuary where you can read, nap or watch a storm roll in. The original antique entry doors welcome you into a foyer with a crystal chandelier. A beautiful pocket door opens to the formal dining room, featuring built-in storage with etched glass cabinets. The living room has floor-to-ceiling windows, a French door that opens to the patio, built-in shelving and an original tiled fireplace. The recently renovated kitchen features a large island with prep sink, white cabinets, granite countertops, a built-in desk, and laundry chute. There are two stairways that lead upstairs: the dramatic front stairway with a bench seat on the landing or a back staircase. Upstairs you will find four ample bedrooms and a full bathroom (with another convenient laundry chute) opening into a large foyer anchored by a wall of built-in cabinetry. The primary bedroom is extremely spacious with a brick fireplace and dual closets. Heading to the third floor, the fully finished attic has a large open area, a bonus room that could make a great home office and tons of storage. Downstairs the newly remodeled basement features original brick and wood beams. You will find a full bathroom, laundry room, family room with a Murphy bed and a built-in electric fireplace. This space is perfect for guests or entertaining. Heading outside, a completely private oasis exists in the fully fenced and gated back yard. A paver patio, detached 2-car garage, a heated pool, built-in firepit with circular seating and beautiful landscaping are waiting to entertain you all year long. This home really does have it all, and as a bonus is located just blocks from the shops and restaurants of downtown Aurora, Aurora University and the Paramount Theater. The seller will also gift the buyer their 3 Paramount Theater Broadway series tickets for 2025-2026 season. This home has been lovingly cared for and is waiting to welcome you!
