Step back in time with this enchanting one-owner Tudor cottage, built in 1947. Nestled in a desired Hill Ave neighborhood, this home evokes the nostalgia of an era when children played outside until dusk, the radio was the heart of news, and the first color TV on the block was a marvel. Imagine hearing "A Prairie Home Companion" on a Saturday night in the cozy living room. This home boasts delightful vintage features, including tongue and groove pine paneling throughout much of the interior, built-in shelving along the staircase, and two inviting fireplaces in the living room and basement. The airy breezeway connecting the house to the garage is perfect for enjoying most of the year. With a flexible floor plan, the home offers two full baths and four bedrooms-two on the main floor and two on the second. The largest bedroom upstairs can serve as a family room or be transformed into a spacious primary suite with a separate study. There are nice possibilities for customization. Envision expanding the breezeway into a sunroom or enlarging the living room to create a cozy first-floor family room or study. There's even a possibility to enlarge the garage into a tandem two car garage. The deep, spacious basement is ideal for re-finishing back into a family or rec room. The kitchen, with space for a breakfast table, includes a large closet pantry that could optionally be removed to open up a hallway into the foyer. Situated near Ben Franklin Elementary School and close to the Illinois Prairie Path, this home offers convenient access to downtown Glen Ellyn as well as the Roosevelt Road corridor. 806 Hill resides in a delightful neighborhood with a mix of interesting housing styles and sizes. Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of Glen Ellyn history with wonderful modern potential. Sold AS IS.
