Property Description
Rare in-town gem, all-brick ranch on half an acre!!! Don't miss this unique opportunity to own a spacious 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath all-brick ranch built on a generous half-acre lot right in the heart of town! This home offers an impressive amount of living space, starting with a massive living room featuring a stunning limestone fireplace as its centerpiece. The whole house fan helps with efficiency as it cools off and refreshes the home in a matter of minutes. Gleaming refinished hardwood floors flow throughout, illuminated by an abundance of natural light pouring in through oversized windows. The recently updated island kitchen boasts modern cabinetry and countertops, blending function with style. Downstairs, a full basement expands your options with a full bathroom, a huge rec room or potential guest suite with a second fireplace, and loads of storage space for future customization. Would be a great multigenerational living having a full bathroom and exterior access! The charm continues outside-enjoy morning coffee on the full front porch with its built-in brick planter box, or relax in the hot tub, entertain under the gazebo on the back patio! Create your dream outdoor retreat in the sprawling backyard-ideal for a garden, pool, or space to run the little ones and pups! The oversized 2.5-car garage offers plenty of space for vehicles, tools, or your next workshop project. All of this just a 3-minute walk to downtown Fox River Grove, Metra station, and the middle school-location, space, and character wrapped into one fantastic home
