Want a home walkable to downtown Wheaton? Want a home that attends A+ ranked schools? Want a home that provides you beautiful green space & privacy? Want a home that is WELL maintained? Want all THAT PLUS an affordable "in" to highly revered Wheaton? Sounds like too much to ask? Not anymore. This home has all that and more. NEW carpet and ALL freshly painted walls AND ceilings make this home truly turn-key. The charming front porch has ample space for tables and chairs-a perfect setting to invite your friendly neighbors to come chat. The covered porch area is also great for protecting today's multitude of deliveries from weather elements. The Foyer greets guests into a spacious entry with freshly carpeted stairs, generous coat closet and a wide opening that flows into the Living Room and Dining Room with a beautiful outdoor view. The Kitchen? Updated with high quality solid wood maple cabinets, granite, undermount SS sink, multiple Lazy Susans, pan storage and a garbage pull out drawer. The Master Bedroom has a walk-in-closet and a private Bath with updated flooring, vanity and sconce light. All the bedrooms are BIG (2 have walk-in closets too!). Need more finished living space? Then check out the Basement. The Rec Room has a bar area complete with sink & refrigerator and more than enough space for a pool table area and a lounging/media area. But wait, there's also an office space perfect for work at home needs. Need storage? Got that covered too! The Laundry/Mechanical Room has LOTS of space for storage and even a work bench & tool storage area for your live-in handyman. Let's talk about quality: HVAC-Humidifier '20, Roof-Gutters-Down Spouts '19, KIT rehab/Appliances '13, ALL Windows '13. For outdoor enthusiasts, relax on your private backyard with no neighbor behind you. Need a break from enjoying your home? Wander to down Wheaton to enjoy unique shopping, dining, the Wheaton Library and community events-or to catch the Metra train. Commuters that means no need to drive/park a car to take the train. Take a peaceful 2 block walk to the DuPage County Fairgrounds to enjoy numerous events including the renowned July Fair. For chain retail shopping/dining you can walk to Kohl's, Target, Chipotle & more using a city pathway. Sweet! Move-In Ready. Excellent location. Award winning schools. Superb condition. This home really DOES have it all. Don't sleep on this one. If you do, it will be gone, Gone, G-O-N-E.
