    What's special

    --> Gorgeously remodeled cottage style home within walking distance of the Glen Ellyn Metra station & all levels of education from preschool to Glenbard West HS. The neighborhood is flush with old growth trees, large lot sizes, & friendly residents. The backyard is party ready with a brick fire pit, premium Rainbow play set, & well shaded stamped concrete patio. --> The home is located on a peaceful one way street 2 blocks from downtown Glen Ellyn. It was originally built in 1921 & a tastefully done three story addition was completed in 2005. --> The 2015 remodel included 4 floors of structural, HVAC, & insulation renovations as well elegantly styled Bedrooms, Bathrooms & Kitchen. The home is very energy efficient due to the variable speed HVAC unit, closed cell foam insulation and LED lighting throughout. Both the third floor & basement furnaces/AC units were all replaced in the last two years. --> The kitchen is gorgeously appointed with new cabinets, Kohler farmhouse sink, Bosch appliances, glass door pulls, ultra quiet disposal, large pantry, as well as Slow Close Hinges/Drawers. However, the stand out feature is a Quartzite Counter Top that was hand selected for it's impeccable color and pattern. --> The bathrooms were finished with Kohler fixtures, new lighting, upgraded bath fans, and over sized plumbing lines to ensure pressure. Beautiful stone was selected for the showers, floors, & counter tops. The master bath & third floor shower were fitted with exquisite natural marble tile & stone seats that match the vanity tops. The master bathroom includes a custom built-in Vanity with full height linen closet & private toilet room. --> The master bedroom & walk-in closet are spacious and well lit with LED recessed fixtures. All of the carpet, drywall, wood trim, doors, & light fixtures were upgraded in every bedroom. --> Even the convenient 2nd floor laundry room was outfitted with style & function in mind. The room was completely surrounded with sound dampening insulation & quality stone was selected for the tile and counter top. --> The 600 square foot finished basement was leveled & tiled. Granite counter tops were installed in the basement kitchen, desk, & island to maintain the same quality finish throughout the home. The basement also includes ample storage rooms as well as an additional washer & dryer. --> Here is the bottom line....All (and I mean ALL) amenities/enhancements were carefully considered during the remodel. For example, both sides of the house are equipped with outdoor hot & cold water spigots. Imagine washing your muddy kids or your classic car with warm water. Or consider that the house was electrically re-wired to ensure safety and reliability. --> Our home was not constructed or remodeled by a mindless contractor looking to turn a profit. The homeowner is an engineer in the electrical industry & painstakingly reviewed the work of each and every contractor throughout the construction process to ensure a quality finished product.
