Charm, Charm, Charm in downtown Glen Ellyn. This is the home you've been searching for - and all the work has been done. Longtime owners have lovingly cared for and updated this vintage bungalow over the last 27+ years. They have added onto the original home and used every inch to its fullest potential. Updated kit w/SS appl - huge family room addition w/vaulted ceiling and windows overlooking mature landscaped lot. 1st floor also boasts private office or 4th BR, plus an outstanding util/laundry/office as well. 2nd floor has 3 generously sized bedrooms, great closet space,and remodeled full bath Basement w/finished rec room, plus lots of storage and workroom areas!... All of this is wonderful - but the best is found attached to the family room addition - a covered open air deck with heater. Used easily for 3 seasons- this is the best spot in the house! Just a stroll away from all 3 schools, train, shopping, restaurants and recreation. This is GE living at its best!
