About This Home
As of March 2026Welcome to Little House on the Prairie! Vintage charm, modern peace of mind, and nothing on your to-do list-this move-in ready home has already had the heavy lifting done. Step into a bright, gleaming kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a built-in wine fridge, plus beautifully refinished hardwood floors that instantly make the space feel warm and welcoming. The basement is perfect for a cozy hangout space, home office, workout area, or whatever your life needs right now. While the primary bedroom is on the main level, two bedrooms reside upstairs (one more appropriately used as an office or an extension of the second bedroom). Out back, you'll love the large yard-ideal for entertaining, gardening, or just claiming a little outdoor space of your own. And the location is a win: near West Park and under 1.5 miles to downtown Des Plaines for restaurants, shops, and the Metra. Classic, charming, and updated where it counts-this is one you can move into and immediately enjoy.
