Property Description
Welcome to this beautifully updated and meticulously maintained home, situated on a spacious half-acre lot in the highly sought-after La Grange Highlands neighborhood. This move-in-ready residence offers the perfect combination of timeless charm and modern updates, with virtually every major component thoughtfully renovated or replaced. A major renovation in 2015 transformed the home with stunning hardwood floors, new tile flooring, a completely remodeled kitchen featuring granite countertops, and all-new stainless-steel appliances. Since then, the home has continued to be upgraded, including new HVAC systems (2018 and 2025), a brand-new roof and 4 skylights with remote controlled shades (2025), fresh interior paint (2025), engineered hardwood flooring replacing carpet (2025), a new patio and walkways (2025), a new washing machine (2025), a new dishwasher (2024), and a brand-new stove (2026). The spacious floor plan offers comfortable living and entertaining spaces filled with natural light, while the beautifully updated kitchen serves as the heart of the home. Outside, enjoy the newly completed patio and walkways overlooking the expansive private yard-perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or creating your own outdoor oasis. Located in the award-winning Highlands Elementary and Middle School districts and Lyons Township High School, this home offers exceptional convenience with easy access to parks, shopping, dining, and major expressways. With extensive improvements already completed, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly turnkey home where you can simply move in and enjoy.
