Property Description
Welcome to this move-in-ready, meticulously renovated split-level home that perfectly blends mid-century character with today's high-end finishes and modern conveniences. From the moment you arrive, a charming front porch with a natural-wood ceiling offers a warm welcome. This contractor-rehabbed residence offers a thoughtfully designed layout across multiple levels, making it an exceptional choice. Deceptively spacious, the main level features an inviting living room anchored by a cozy fireplace, creating a perfect centerpiece for daily relaxation. The heart of the home is the elegant white kitchen, beautifully appointed with gold accents, stylish pendant lighting, a tiled backsplash, and a classic farmhouse sink. Adjacent to the kitchen is a separate dining room boasting a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, filled with natural light, and providing direct access to the back deck for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The upper levels provide a private retreat, including a master bedroom complete with a walk-in closet and a full master bathroom. Adding to the home's versatility is a finished attic-a flexible "bonus" room that can easily function as a home office, expansive dressing room, nursery, or additional storage area. The finished lower level further enhances the living space, accommodating a comfortable family/recreation area and a dedicated laundry room with a utility sink. Practicality is a priority here, with access to a large crawl space providing abundant extra storage. Meticulously updated in 2023, the home features two full HVAC systems for efficient climate control and a 200+ amp electrical service. The exterior is equally impressive, situated on a corner lot with a fenced backyard and a back deck off the dining room, ideal for summer gatherings. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street, the property is served by highly rated schools, including Brook Park Elementary (District 95), SE Gross Junior High (District 95), and Riverside Brookfield High School (District 208). This is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a home that is truly ready to welcome its next chapter.
