About This Home
As of January 2025Welcome to a beautifully maintained gem in the heart of Glen Ellyn, situated at the quiet end of the street, offering the privacy and tranquillity of a cul-de-sac feel. This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom split-level home has been cherished by the same owner for over 30 years, with quality and meticulous care evident throughout. All major updates have been completed, so you can move right in with peace of mind. A new furnace and air conditioner were installed just last year, and the roof was replaced 4 years ago. Windows and custom blinds were updated about 10 years ago, adding both style and energy efficiency. The kitchen has been thoughtfully remodeled to suit modern tastes, featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and beautifully refreshed cabinetry. Both bathrooms were updated along with the kitchen remodel, creating a cohesive, refreshed feel throughout the home. Refinished hardwood floors add an elegant touch, while the epoxy-floored garage highlights the attention to detail and care invested in this property. The lower level features a spacious family room with access to the backyard-perfect for a play area, home office, or additional lounging space. Step outside to a beautifully landscaped backyard oasis complete with a brick patio and built-in fire pit, ideal for entertaining or unwinding in a private, peaceful setting. Located within walking distance to Lincoln Elementary, Sunset Pool & Park, and the YMCA, this home offers easy access to I-355 and is just a short bike ride to downtown Glen Ellyn's vibrant dining, shopping, and coffee scene. Homes with this level of care and longevity rarely come to market-now available at a new price, this is an opportunity you won't want to miss. Schedule a viewing today and discover what makes this Glen Ellyn charmer so special!
