Welcome to this spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom split-level home with a sub-basement, set on a large lot backing up to the scenic DuPage River in unincorporated West Chicago! A majority of the main level boasts beautiful hardwood floors, with tile in the kitchen and foyer. The bright eat-in kitchen features a skylight, newer appliances, and access to the deck-perfect for relaxing or entertaining with views of the river. On the other side of the river lies protected forest preserve land, ensuring no rear neighbors and a private, natural setting that will never be built up or improved. The lower-level walkout offers additional living space, while the unfinished sub-basement provides a generous storage room and laundry area. All bedrooms are upstairs, including the master suite with dual closets and a private ensuite with a stand-up shower. Recent updates include a furnace (18 months), roof (approx. 8 years), soffits and fascia (approx. 6 years), newer carpeting, newer water softener, and a brand-new driveway. With multiple living areas, thoughtful updates, a deck overlooking the river, and a serene setting with lasting privacy, this home is the perfect blend of comfort and convenience!
