Spacious and inviting 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath two-story home set on a park-like, fully fenced lot with gorgeous gardens, professional landscaping, a newer brick patio, and a virtually maintenance-free koi pond for peaceful outdoor living. Inside, hardwood floors on the main level create an easy flow from the formal living and dining rooms to the updated kitchen with 48" cabinets, pantry, granite countertops, and breakfast bar that opens to the family room. The family room features a whitewashed fireplace, with colors and decor that create a calm, cohesive feel from kitchen to living space. Updated bathrooms, a convenient 2nd-floor laundry room, spacious bedrooms, and a private Primary Suite with full bath complete the interior. Major improvements-roof, HVAC, whole-house water filter, tankless water heater, and crawl space lining-have all been completed within the last 10 years. Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street close to schools, parks, the library, expressways, and the award-winning park district. Live here and make it a wonderful life!
