Property Description
SHOWSTOPPING BRICK RANCH IN DOWNERS GROVE! Prepare to be impressed-516 Eldon Place shows like a professionally staged model and feels as though it belongs in the pages of a luxury design magazine. Set on a generous 75-by-150-foot, east-facing corner lot in one of Downers Grove's beautiful, established neighborhoods, this sprawling brick ranch offers approximately 3,100 square feet of total finished space between the main level and full finished lower level. Freshly painted throughout in a sophisticated, modern color palette, the home feels polished, elegant, and completely move-in ready.

The kitchen provides abundant cabinetry and flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, creating an inviting setting for entertaining. A separate family room offers another comfortable space for relaxing and everyday living. All three bedrooms and both full bathrooms are conveniently located on the main level. The enormous finished lower level dramatically expands the home's possibilities. Designed for entertaining, it features a wood-burning fireplace, wet bar, expansive recreation area, separate workroom, dedicated laundry room, and exceptional storage. There is ample space for a home theater, game room, fitness area, home office, or additional gathering space. Outside, enjoy the large, fully fenced yard-perfect for summer barbecues, outdoor entertaining, pets, and privacy.
