2008 Applewood Dr., Monticello, IL 61856

Situated on a corner lot in Monticello's Appletree Subdivision, this home offers a popular open concept floor plan, 3-car garage, and stepless design for accessibility. The peaceful location on the western edge of Monticello offers a quiet, semi-rural environment, combined with quick access to I-72 and to all that Monticello has to offer. Outside, the house features partial brick facade and a vinyl privacy fenced backyard. Inside, the front door opens into a foyer with hardwood floors and coat closet. The foyer leads to the great room with cathedral ceilings, corner fireplace with gas log, a wall of windows, and a seamless flow to the dining area and kitchen. Natural light floods the kitchen from two sides. It features two spaces for dining on larger and smaller scale. It includes an upscale complement of newer stainless steel appliances. Cabinets were refinished, a backsplash was added, and light fixtures and ceiling fans were replaced in recent years to update the look and feel of the space. A half bath is located just off the kitchen, near the walk-in laundry room and garage. The primary bedroom features cathedral ceiling and a luxurious en suite bath with separate whirlpool tub and walk-in shower, along with double vanities. Recent updates include refinished cabinets, new light fixtures, new faucets, and shiplap accent walls. The other two generously sized bedrooms share a nearby hall bath. The house features a new roof in 2020.
