This charming home is set on a large, corner lot and enjoys gracious entertaining spaces. You will be greeted by a lovely foyer with pretty staircase and formal living and dining rooms. The cozy family room features wood floors, a wood burning fireplace, and opens to a private wood deck. The sunny kitchen was updated in 2010 and enjoys white cabinets, blue quartz counters, and a large breakfast area. The main level also enjoys a fantastic laundry room. There are four spacious bedrooms on the upper level, all with generous closets. This home has been meticulously maintained and it shines with a pride of ownership. The roof was replaced in 2023, and additional improvements include windows, HVAC system, primary bathroom remodel, powder room remodel, a chimney sleeve in 2017, paver walkway and driveway, and beautiful professional landscaping by Marianni. This home is located in a special setting within the H.O. Stone neighborhood which enjoys the lower property taxes of West Deerfield Township. It is also just steps to the footbridge over the creek to Waveland Park and Cherokee Elementary School.
