This highly sought-after location offers exceptional day-to-day convenience. Located just one mile from the vibrant shops and restaurants of downtown Wheaton and the College Avenue Metra station, this home is also just a half block from Lawson Field, two blocks from Wheaton College, and moments from the Illinois Prairie Path. Combining an unbeatable location with professional landscaping, beautiful hardscaping, and outdoor lighting, this updated ranch welcomes you home with undeniable 10+ curb appeal. Inside, you'll be greeted by gorgeous hardwood flooring and new window treatments and blinds throughout the entire home. The spacious, light-filled living room offers a warm and inviting gathering space, while the formal dining room is ideal for entertaining family and friends and features a stylish diagonally laid accent wall. The crisp white kitchen is both functional and timeless, boasting white cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a tiled floor. Relax in the cozy family room overlooking the backyard, or retreat to the main level's three comfortable bedrooms and updated full bath. Pull-down attic stairs provide easy access to additional storage. The fully finished basement effectively doubles the home's living space, while above-grade windows keep the area bright and welcoming. The lower level features a huge media and recreation room, a private home office, and a versatile bonus room with a closet, currently used as a fourth bedroom. A spacious laundry room with a built-in drying rack, utility sink, and folding table makes laundry day a breeze. Additional unfinished space houses the mechanicals and offers ample storage. Recent improvements provide exceptional peace of mind. A 2022 renovation included many major updates, including the roof, windows, siding, doors, HVAC system, and more. In 2025, additional improvements included a new radon mitigation system, new return air ducts for enhanced comfort and efficiency, a newly poured asphalt driveway, recent chimney repairs, and a complete transformation of the front and rear landscaping with updated hardscaping, enhanced lighting, and improved drainage. The large recently renovated tiled patio provides abundant space for outdoor living and entertaining. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated throughout, this move-in-ready home offers the perfect combination of location, comfort, and modern style. ALL FURNITURE IS NEGOTIABLE.
