About This Home
Spacious Living in The Knolls Subdivision. Welcome to this beautiful 3-bedroom, 2.1-bath home offering an impressive 2,670 square feet of living space in the desirable Knolls neighborhood. From the moment you step onto the charming front porch and into the expansive foyer, you'll feel right at home. The main level features hardwood floors and abundant natural light. The formal living room boasts soaring ceilings and a unique loft overlook, creating an airy, open feel. Adjacent is the elegant dining room with serene views of the backyard - perfect for hosting gatherings. The fully equipped kitchen is a chef's delight, complete with an island, built-in desk ideal for a coffee bar, and a cozy eating area with direct access to the oversized deck. The inviting family room, anchored by a gas fireplace, is the perfect spot to unwind for movie nights or quiet evenings. A convenient first-floor laundry room sits near the spacious THREE-CAR HEATED garage and a well-placed half bath. Upstairs, a generous loft overlooks both the living room and backyard-ideal for a home office, playroom, or easily convertible into a fourth bedroom. Bedrooms two and three are well-sized with lovely views, and the hall bath offers ample space for family or guests. The oversized primary suite is a true retreat, featuring vaulted ceilings, tranquil backyard views, a large walk-in closet, and a luxurious ensuite with double vanity, jetted tub, and walk-in shower. The unfinished English basement offers 9-foot ceilings, roughed-in plumbing, and endless potential for additional living space, a home gym, or entertainment area. Out back, the expansive yard is perfect for children and pets alike. While the deck and brick paver patio could use a refresh, they offer a canvas for your outdoor dreams. A 14-month home warranty is included for added peace of mind. Conveniently located near tollway access, grocery stores, parks, bike paths, and NIU, this home is ideal for growing families, multi-generational living, or anyone seeking room to roam. With space, comfort, and potential, this is the one you've been waiting for.
