Charming bungalow in highly desirable Arlington Heights! Just steps to the bus line and close to all that Arlington has to offer, this sun-filled home has been lovingly cared for over 26 years and radiates warmth and character throughout. Hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning fireplace in the dining room, and a living room with built-in shelves create an inviting, comfortable feel, while the front sunroom is the perfect spot to relax and unwind. The flexible layout includes a first-floor office or optional fourth bedroom, with a second-floor sitting area ideal for a home office or nursery. The lower level offers a great space to gather, watch a movie, or entertain. Outside, enjoy beautiful plantings, mature landscaping, and the rare bonus of a two-car garage. A truly special home.
