The spacious main level features a functional layout with a large living room that flows into the dining area, a full kitchen, two bedrooms, a full bath, and the convenience of main-floor laundry.

A small concrete patio and detached 2-car garage complete the outdoor space. Major mechanical updates provide peace of mind, including a NEW ROOF (2026), FURNACE (2023), AIR CONDITIONER (2022), WATER HEATER (2022), electric WASHER AND DRYER (approximately 2024), and freshly painted garage interior and exterior (2026). Ideally located just 0.2 miles from the Villa Park Metra station, this house is less than a 5 minute walk to the Metra stop- a commuters dream! Located only 0.8 miles from vibrant downtown Villa Park, you'll enjoy easy access to shopping, dining, parks, and commuting options.
