Property Description
Step inside this quintessential North Downers Grove ranch located in one of the area's most sought after neighborhoods, served by highly desirable Highland Elementary, Herrick Middle School, and Downers Grove North High School. Situated on an incredible 100' x 274' lot spanning over half an acre, this custom built brick and wood home offers a rare opportunity to own a property with both character and space. Custom built in 1985, the home welcomes you with a foyer entry. To the right is the third bedroom featuring double door entry, making it an ideal den or home office if a third bedroom is not needed. To the left is the eat in kitchen with a convenient opening overlooking the living room. The highlight of the home is the dramatic living and dining room combination featuring vaulted ceilings and an impressive two story wood burning brick fireplace that creates a spacious and inviting atmosphere with wonderful architectural character. Down the hall are two additional bedrooms and an updated hall bathroom featuring a newer shower surround, glass doors, Moen faucet, and toilet. Open stairs overlooking the dining area lead to the basement, which is largely unfinished but already includes some drywall installation and a completed full bathroom, offering endless possibilities for future finishing. Outside, you'll find a brick paver patio overlooking the incredible backyard. A portion of the property has been naturalized, creating your own private wooded retreat right in the heart of Downers Grove. The former screened porch is now a covered porch and could easily be screened again for bug free enjoyment of this amazing setting. Bring your ideas and make this special property your own. The location is outstanding, the lot is exceptional, and opportunities like this in North Downers Grove do not come along often. Estate sale being sold as is. Live here and make it a wonderful life!
