About This Home

As of April 2022

5720 Carpenter is one of the most charming homes on the market today! Impeccably maintained, this 3 bedroom, 2 full bath home sits on an oversized lot in a quiet Downers Grove neighborhood. On the first level, you'll find a cozy living room with a gas fireplace, a separate dining room with plenty of natural light and a den that could also be a private office with 2 sets of French doors. The kitchen has a classic black and white tile floor, stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. There's also a mudroom with a side door to the driveway, a command center and custom closets that will make organizing easy! The primary bedroom suite is on the first floor with hardwood floors, an outfitted closet and a recent bathroom remodel that will wow you; double vanity, soaker tub, and a stand-up tile shower straight from a magazine. Upstairs you'll find 2 more bedrooms - both spacious - and another full bath. On the lower level, there's laundry, an exercise area and plenty of storage. You cannot miss the backyard - nearly 225 feet deep, there's mature trees, gorgeous landscaping, a waterfall, a paver patio and a spacious deck to sit and watch it all bloom this spring! Close to downtown Downers Grove - the restaurants, shops, library, Metra train stop - are all just a short walk away.
