If you've been looking for a St. Charles rental where you can walk to downtown instead of simply being close to it, this one deserves a closer look. This rarely available 4 bedroom, 3.1 bathroom home puts you close to the Fox River, restaurants, shops, parks, bike trails, and schools. All tucked away in a highly desirable neighborhood. This home was remodeled down to the studs in 2014, combining the character of an older home with the modern updates you are looking for. The kitchen has tons of cabinets, granite countertops, large center island w/ stools, stainless steel appliances, and hardwood floors. The separate dining room right off the kitchen leads into the solarium / family room (or use it as a breakfast nook!) which has newer windows and a copper roof. The open layout makes the main living space comfortable for everyday living and a great flow for entertaining. Upstairs, the primary bedroom features hardwood floors, a full private bathroom with double sinks and a clawfoot tub, plus his and hers closets (one of which is walk-in). Two more bedrooms are located on the same floor, along with a full bathroom. All closets have built in organizers. The third floor offers something you don't often find in a rental! A separate bedroom with its own full bathroom and shower. It could work well as a guest room, home office, or private space for someone who wants a little separation from the rest of the home. You'll also enjoy the enclosed front porch with large leaded glass windows, professionally landscaped perennial flower beds, a newer patio, and a massive professionally waterproofed basement including several storage options. For dog owners, there's a nearby dog park, another reason this location is especially convenient. Add a newer oversized 2-car garage, this is a home worth seeing in person. Schedule a showing and see if it feels like home.
