Experience the perfect blend of timeless elegance and modern sophistication in this fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath bungalow in the privately wooded High Lake neighborhood. Every inch of this historic residence has been meticulously reimagined, preserving its architectural character while introducing the finest contemporary upgrades. Step inside to be welcomed by gleaming hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, rich woodwork, custom built-ins, and a stately brick fireplace-details that exude classic refinement. The fully redesigned and sunlight drenched kitchen is a true showpiece, boasting expansive quartz countertops, exquisite backsplash, and new appliances and tile flooring. Retreat to the primary suite sanctuary, where a beautifully appointed en-suite bath with a walk-in shower and spacious closet offers comfort and sophistication. Two additional bedrooms and updated bath complete the main level. The allure extends outdoors with a private, fenced half-acre+ estate-like yard, offering sweeping views of the woods and High Lake and direct access to the Prairie Path. Recent upgrades-newer roof, windows, water heater, sump pump, well pump, washer, and dryer-ensure peace of mind and effortless living. Perfectly positioned between West Chicago and Winfield, this residence offers a tranquil wooded setting just moments from downtown Winfield, the Metra, and CDH. This is more than a home-it's a lifestyle of elegance, privacy, and convenience.
