About This Home

As of May 2025

Welcome to this 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath, historic home located near vibrant downtown Wheaton. Step through the inviting covered front porch and into a foyer adorned with original tile-work. The large living room is a cozy retreat, featuring a wood-burning fireplace and elegant hardwood floors and original mill-work. The hardwood floors and crown molding continue in the formal dining room, which has plenty of space for holiday entertaining. The kitchen was renovated by the current homeowners, and features white shaker cabinets, granite counters, a white subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a large single-basin stainless steel sink and an island. The kitchen flows seamlessly to an eat-in area, which could also serve as a family room. The main floor is rounded out with a newly added powder room. Upstairs, the 3 bedrooms all have new windows. The primary bedroom has a walk-in closet and plenty of space for a king size bed. The recently added en-suite bathroom is comprised of a classic black and white tile scheme with a pedestal sink and a walk-in shower. The 2 additional bedrooms share a full hallway bathroom. The hallway bath has a combo tub/shower, a single vanity with granite countertop, and a linen closet. The full basement includes a family room with a gas-log fireplace, an office area, a laundry room equipped with a washer and dryer, and an additional full bathroom. Outside, the fenced-in yard with a brick paver patio is ideal for BBQs or relaxing by the built-in fire pit. A detached 2.5-car garage completes this wonderful property. This home is located near Wheaton College and everything that downtown Wheaton has to offer.
