    What's special

    If you have been looking for the Victorian storybook cottage in the woods, this may be the one for you! Step back in time and get all of the charm of this 1875 cottage with tons of modern improvements and updates. So many original features, the heart of pine floors, beamed ceiling, windows with the original wavy glass and classic gingerbread details. The seller has invested over $200,000 to improve this home including a fully renovated kitchen, two new baths and an infrastructure that has been brought into this century so you have a house that is ready for you! A new roof, mini splits, pellet stove, new plumbing including the mainwater line, and an electrical heavy up are just a few of the improvements. The primary suite on the main level makes for easy living. It includes a walk-in closet (which could be a nursery), an en-suite bath with a clawfoot tub with overflow drain tile and custom tile work. A fully renovated kitchen features custom hickory cabinets and a built-in bench with space for a table; all adjacent to the dining room. The living room features doors that open out onto the wrap around porch, some built-ins and a pellet stove. Upstairs is a second bedroom and a bonus space that would be perfect for an office or craft area. This cottage faces the grassy Avenue which is a walk way and out the back there is the West Woods. And did I mention the wrap around porch? The yard has the cutest picket fence and is surprisingly private with a brick walkway and patio area and lots of native and low maintenance plantings. There is off street parking for several cars. Known as "a town within a forest" the town has 100+ acres of forest preserve and parkland, a private swimming lake in the woods, tennis and pickleball courts, baseball fields, playground area, and a dog park. Washington Grove is an oasis. Come live where there are lots of town events and traditions and community sprit abounds. Conveniently located within walking distance of the MARC train. The Shady Grove metro, I-270, and the ICC are all close by. The tax feature in the new Bright platform is not working correctly. Total estimated taxes for thei first year is $4,811.01 including the Washington Grove Town tax of $768.04
