Property Description
Welcome to 185 N Ott Ave, where classic split-level charm meets modern peace of mind in the heart of Glen Ellyn! We aren't just selling a home here; we are selling your weekends back. Forget about spending your Saturdays at the hardware store fixing a roof or worrying about an old furnace - because here, the Roof, Furnace, and Water Heater were all brand new in 2022. Water Softener system for the entire home. Lower Level was fully gutted and renovated. 2 Full Baths are partially done with newer floors and vanities, light fixtures. This is the definition of "Turn-Key Ready." Step inside and feel the flow. The main level is bathed in natural light, highlighting gleaming hardwood floors that lead you straight into the heart of the home. This kitchen isn't just for cooking; it's for gathering. With stainless steel appliances, a gas range for the chef, and a center island perfect for that morning espresso, it's ready for action. And when the weather breaks? Step out onto your massive rear deck. This isn't a balcony; it's an outdoor living space overlooking a private, tree-lined backyard that is perfect for a summer cookout. With 4 spacious bedrooms (3- upper level), upgraded bathrooms featuring modern vanities and glass-block lighting, and a 2-car garage for all the toys, this home checks every single box. Located in a prime spot near top-rated Glen Ellyn schools, park, dining and you are just 5 minutes from the Metra station (UP-W). At $525k, a home this solid in this zip code is a rare find. Add your charm and make it your home!
