The VERSATILE LAYOUT gives you the flexibility to create the perfect living space....each room flows effortlessly to the next which makes entertaining a breeze. The LIVING ROOM & DINING ROOM ARE GREAT FLEX SPACE that can be used as needed ~ think traditional Living/Dining, Music Room, Home Office, or Playroom. (The sellers added LOVELY FRENCH DOORS to create a RELATED LIVING BEDROOM & DEN scenario for themselves, and transformed the former Powder Room to a 3-PIECE BATH!) Just steps away is the HUGE EAT-IN KITCHEN that boasts plenty of room for multiple cooks! The space is laid out very well and features an ABUNDANCE OF CABINETRY and COUNTER SPACE, STAINLESS STEEL APPLIANCES, ROOM FOR A SIZABLE TABLE, A PANTRY, and DIRECT ACCESS TO THE DECK. The Kitchen is open to the SPACIOUS FAMILY ROOM which features a GAS-START, WOODBURNING FIREPLACE. A bonus here is the 3-SEASON ROOM that adds GREAT ENTERTAINING SPACE, or make it your AFTER-WORK "RELAXATION STATION". Rounding out the main level is the LAUNDRY / MUDROOM that leads to the ATTACHED 2.5-CAR GARAGE. ----- Upstairs, you'll find 3 GREAT BEDROOMS including a PRIMARY SUITE with a nice WALK-IN CLOSET and an UPDATED PRIVATE BATH. The 2 ADDITIONAL BEDROOMS are really nice in size and share a FULL BATH right down the hall. ----- Be sure to check out the FINISHED BASEMENT which you can put to good use as your Man Cave, or Rec Room / Game Space, or Teen Space. BEDROOM 4 is here as well as a BEAUTIFUL 3-PIECE BATH making it a great option for college students home for summer or a private space for overnight guests! ----- PRIDE OF OWNERSHIP SHOWS THROUGHOUT and there is even more to love outside! Step onto the LARGE MAINTENANCE-FREE DECK and envision grilling out and hanging out with family and friends this summer. The BIG BACKYARD offers plenty of grassy area for kids and pets to run around & play, with enough room to plant a garden or add a pool. The SPRINKLER SYSTEM keeps the lawn looking green and lush. ----- EXCELLENT LOCATION!!! Close to HIGHLY-RATED NEW LENOX SCHOOLS, the neighborhood Skate Park as well as 2 playgrounds, shopping, restaurants, the Metra commuter train, the I-80 and I-355 Expressways, and all the awesome activities & events that the Village of New Lenox promotes all year long!
