Property Description
Finding the perfect home is a lot like finding the perfect cookie-warm, inviting, and impossible to resist. Welcome to 1080 East Prairie Avenue, Des Plaines. Located near downtown Des Plaines, this beautifully renovated 4-bedroom, 2-bath raised ranch has been fine-tuned by the current owners with a new stone patio, new front door, fresh paint throughout, wood blinds, and updated kitchen flooring. From the moment you step inside, the gleaming hardwood floors guide you into a living room that's just begging for movie marathons and game nights. The dining area flows right into an elegant kitchen with white shaker cabinets, dazzling granite countertops, a mosaic tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. The breakfast bar is ideal for grab-and-go meals, heart-to-heart chats, or channeling your inner celebrity chef. On the upper level awaits three of the four spacious bedrooms, each bathed in natural light and ready to be filled with laughter, dreams, and creativity. The two full bathrooms double as a spa retreat with modern finishes, sleek designs, and just the right amount of luxury. Now, let's head down to the basement that may make you do a happy dance. This fully finished space is massive-big enough for a home theater, a play area, or an ultimate ninja warrior course. It's drenched in natural light, making it feel more like an extension of the home rather than a typical basement. It includes a fourth bedroom and a bonus room that can be used as a private office or a fifth bedroom. The laundry room is conveniently tucked in a separate space so you can ignore the mountain of clothes just a little longer. Step outside, and you'll find a backyard built for memory-making-whether it's summer barbecues or just lounging on the gorgeous stone patio. With an oversized 2.5-car garage containing newly added storage racks and an extended side concrete driveway, you'll never need to play musical cars in the morning. Located in an unbeatable neighborhood, centrally located between downtown Des Plaines, Prairie Lakes, park district activities, and great schools, you truly can have it all. Don't miss this opportunity! This home has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated from top to bottom. Look no further than 1080 East Prairie Avenue-where comfort, style, and location come together. This home will go fast!
