About This Home

As of March 2025

This beautiful 2-bedroom home with a loft (can easily be converted to 3rd bedroom) and 2.1 baths offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience in a maintenance-free community. Step inside to find a welcoming foyer with a double-door coat closet that leads into a bright living room overlooking the courtyard. The first-floor features wood laminate flooring throughout, creating a seamless flow. The spacious eat-in kitchen has been updated with newer countertops and a sink, white cabinetry, a custom tile backsplash, and a breakfast bar. Newer stainless-steel appliances (2020) and a sliding door to the backyard complete this inviting space. Upstairs, the master bedroom features a walk-in closet and a private full bath, offering a retreat-like atmosphere. The second bedroom is generously sized, while the loft provides flexible space that's perfect for a home office or additional living area. The second full bath is located in the hallway from convenience. A first-floor laundry room, complete with a newer washer and dryer (2020), adds convenience, and the 2-car garage provides ample storage. In a prime location near parks, ponds, and an elementary school, as well as easy access to I-88, the Metra train station, shopping, and dining, this property is ideally situated for both everyday living and commuting.
