About This Home
Welcome home to 684 N Howard Avenue - a charming split-level nestled on a quiet dead-end street and perfectly positioned beside the peaceful beauty of Crestview Park. This lovingly maintained home radiates warmth and comfort from the moment you step inside. Sunlight pours into the spacious living and dining areas, creating an inviting space for cozy evenings or lively gatherings. The kitchen is bright and practical, offering the perfect nook for morning coffee or casual family meals. On the lower level, the generous family room opens to the backyard through sliding glass doors, making indoor-outdoor living effortless and bringing in sunshine year-round. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, each with gleaming hardwood floors and great closet space. Two full baths add everyday convenience. Outside, the fenced backyard feels like your own private retreat - ideal for pets, play, or weekend barbecues - with a patio just waiting to host your next celebration. An oversized two-car garage and cement crawl space provide plenty of storage, while a newer HVAC system offers peace of mind for years to come. All of this in a prime Elmhurst location, steps from Crestview Park and served by the top-rated District 205 schools.
