About This Home

As of July 2025

Discover this beautifully maintained oversized MacDougall ranch home, nestled in the highly desirable Lincoln Elementary School pocket of South Elmhurst. This residence offers an expansive living space exceeding 3,000 square feet. Situated on a picturesque corner lot, the natural light streams through the new windows. The living room is centered around one of two gas fireplaces, featuring a custom stone surround. An additional gathering area on the main level is a stunning family room with a picturesque view of the well-manicured yard and newly added paver patio. Step into the heart of the home-the completely remodeled kitchen, designed by Kristin Petro Interiors in 2021. This space is a chef's delight with soft-close cabinets, custom pull-out features, undermount lighting, modern stainless steel appliances, and a stylish backsplash. The adjacent dining area is perfect for entertaining or intimate family meals. Hardwood floors seamlessly connect the main level, including three spacious bedrooms, a full bathroom with a tub, and a convenient powder room. A coat and linen closet provide additional storage. The finished basement expands the living area, featuring a fourth bedroom (currently serving as an office), another full bathroom, and a versatile recreation room. This space can accommodate a secondary living area, playroom, billiard/gaming area, or home gym. The laundry room is bright and well-organized with a sink and room for folding. It also features a second fridge and oven, perfect for overflow groceries or as a prep kitchen for gatherings! Recent updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof, Hardie Board siding, HVAC system, and all-new appliances, which were all done in the last five years. Close to the Prairie Path and Salt Creek Trail this location is perfect for those that love the outdoors!
