Property Description

This stunning Victorian gem seamlessly blends classic charm with modern convenience. A welcoming front porch and gracious foyer set the stage, while inside, freshly updated interiors showcase gleaming hardwood floors, crown molding throughout the main floor, custom built-ins, exposed beams, and exquisite white trim. Unique architectural details abound, including stained-glass French doors leading to the main-floor bedroom, an arched entryway closet, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The spacious eat-in kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring an expansive granite island/table that comfortably seats nine. Thoughtfully designed, the island also offers deep storage cabinets underneath. Culinary enthusiasts will love the high-end Wolf oven, perfect for preparing gourmet meals. Additional storage perks include sliding cabinets spanning the length of the primary bathroom, recessed shelving perfect for a linen closet near the guest bath, and built-in bookshelves. The first floor boasts a bright living room, a formal dining room, a full bathroom, a large mudroom leading to the fully fenced backyard, and a rare first-floor bedroom with a walk-in cedar closet. Just off the kitchen, an attached one-and-a-half-car garage adds convenience. Upstairs, plush carpeting enhances two sunlit bedrooms with charming gabled ceilings. The primary suite includes a full ensuite bath and multiple closets for ample storage. Outdoor spaces shine with thoughtful updates: a remodeled backyard retaining wall (2021), a new fence (2024), and a beautifully landscaped yard. The backyard, featuring two patios and an abundance of blooming perennials, is perfect for entertaining. This home is ideally located for commuters, just a 3-minute walk to the Fairview Metra Station, providing easy access to the city for work or weekend events. Nature lovers will appreciate having three parks within a 10-minute walk (Cumnor & 2nd, Patriot's Park, and Hummer Park). Downtown Downers Grove is just a 3-minute drive-or an easy 1-mile walk-offering a vibrant mix of top-rated restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and the library. Daily conveniences are covered with Trader Joe's, Aldi, Fresh Thyme, Jewel-Osco, and CVS all within a 5-minute drive. Recent updates include a new refrigerator (October 2024), new washing machine (July 2022), and a newer water heater (July 2020). With its charming architecture, modern amenities, and unbeatable location, this home also offers the possibility of Downers Grove landmarking-a true gem waiting to be discovered!
