Exceptional curb appeal and a sought-after sun-drenched, renovated interior make this home a true standout. This move-in-ready home offers a spacious, open and functional floor plan highlighted by beautiful hardwood floors, newer vinyl windows, sleek roller shades and new mid-century-inspired designer light fixtures throughout. The welcoming foyer with a guest closet and contemporary entry door opens to an expansive living and dining room combination featuring a vaulted 11/2-story ceiling, a large picture window and an open second-floor hallway overlooking the living space below. The renovated white eat-in kitchen offers an efficient layout with Craftsman-style cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, a pantry closet and generous table space with views of the inviting backyard. The home features a convenient main-level full bath with a walk-in shower, three second-floor bedrooms and an additional full bath. The finished lower level provides exceptional living and entertaining space with an expansive family room, a laundry room with exterior access and a large concrete-floored crawl space ideal for storage. Outside, the concrete driveway and patio, completed in 2011, enhance the home's appeal, along with a two-car detached garage with new siding, a fully fenced backyard with aluminum fencing and lush professional landscaping. Additional improvements include a new HVAC system, new sump pump and new copper plumbing. Ideally located just minutes from shopping, dining, parks and expressways, and served by highly regarded schools including Forest Road Elementary, Park Junior High and Lyons Township High School. A wonderful combination of style, updates and location-this is a must-see home!
