This is a place that feels like HOME the moment you arrive. Charming brick cottage thoughtfully updated in 2023 where each detail has been designed to bring you comfort. With a freshly remodeled kitchen, spa-like bath (both featuring heated floors!) with a sleek roll-in shower, this home is as warm and inviting as a May Spring Morning! Stylish new flooring flows through the first floor. 2 bedrooms on the first floor plus a convenient laundry room, with the 3rd loft bedroom and private half bath upstairs. The screened-in porch is a perfect spot for lazy Sunday mornings or evening chats, with an upstairs attic offering endless storage solutions. BUT THAT GARAGE! If you're looking for space to work, create, or store your toys, this massive 3+ car heated garage with a second-story is a rare find! With 2 parcels sitting on over half an acre of lush, private land, the property extends into a backdrop of towering trees and natural prairie grasses, complete with a shed and storage building. Tucked away on a secret street, yet close to all the charm and conveniences of Glen Ellyn, this home is nestled in highly sought-after School Districts 41 & 87 (Glenbard West). Don't miss your chance to be the one who calls this hidden treasure HOME! Lovingly maintained, this charmer is being sold "As-Is."
