Welcome home! There's so much to love with this updated and move-in-ready home in the coveted North Hills subdivision! Built for the year-round enjoyment of family and friends, this popular "Spruce" model includes a rarely available expanded floorplan. Light, bright, and inviting, the large living room/dining room features a vaulted ceiling with skylights. The updated kitchen has ample storage and a cozy breakfast area, and opens to an extended family room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and a sliding glass door to your private outdoor oasis. The patio is home to a screened gazebo for outdoor evening entertaining, and a large, fenced yard for fun in the sun! Rounding out the first floor is the power room and an enlarged utility/mud room off the garage. Escape to the second floor with three bedrooms and full bath. The updates are almost too numerous to mention but include a new roof (this year), new HVAC, appliances, light fixtures, new luxury vinyl flooring, carpet, tile, and fresh painting throughout. Close to parks, shopping and dining, great schools, and all that makes Carol Stream a great place to call home!
