Property Description

Larger than it looks - and filled with fantastic updates! This beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated home offers the perfect blend of charm, functionality, and outdoor living in a quiet, established neighborhood. From the moment you arrive, you'll be drawn to the inviting curb appeal, featuring a manicured lawn, classic front porch, newer siding & windows, and a large bay window that fills the home with natural light. Inside, the first floor boasts a highly desirable open concept layout, with a recently remodeled kitchen (2024), living room, and dining room all seamlessly connected-ideal for everyday living and effortless entertaining. Custom built-ins, detailed wainscoting & moldings, and a cozy fireplace anchor the space, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. A family room/den with a sliding glass door extends your living space and leads to the backyard retreat. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms and a fully remodeled bathroom (2020). The lower level offers a spacious mudroom/den-perfect for a playroom, office, or media room-with convenient garage access and a 2nd remodeled bathroom (2020). A recently finished sub-basement (2019) adds even more versatility, featuring a large rec room, an office/bedroom, and two oversized storage closets. Exterior access with plumbing and gas connections remain in place from a previously existing second kitchen, offering great potential for future use as an in-law apartment. Step outside to your private backyard oasis! Professionally landscaped and designed for year-round enjoyment, the backyard includes a stunning stone patio, a custom pergola with added privacy features, a firepit with stone seating, and a fully fenced yard. Additional stonework enhances the back of the home, adding both beauty and durability (2018-2015). The tandem garage almost fits 2 regular-sized cars. Location is unbeatable! Situated on a quiet street directly across from Kimball Middle School and just minutes from Highland Elementary and Larkin High School. You'll also love the easy access to Wing Park, downtown Elgin, shopping, dining, two Metra train stations, and I-90 for commuting.
