Charming ranch with great curb appeal, perched on a gentle hill on an oversized 75' x 131' lot in the heart of Downers Grove! If you've been waiting for an opportunity to get into this sought-after neighborhood, here's your chance!! This well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers easy, single-level living with a thoughtful and inviting layout. The living room features a cozy wood burning fireplace and French doors that opens to the screened-in porch. Just a few steps up, the family room provides a comfortable and welcoming space to relax or gather. The home offers three good sized bedrooms and an updated hall bath with a zero-entry shower. A large, light-filled kitchen has white cabinetry and eating area space with access to a spacious Trex deck. A separate dining room offers a classic setting for meals and gatherings. Hardwood floors add warmth and character. The screened-in porch overlooks a beautifully landscaped yard with ample room to play, garden, or expand. A partial basement with crawl space offers excellent storage options, and the two-car garage adds everyday convenience. Ideally located near Randall Park and Barth Pond/Patriots Park, and just minutes to downtown Downers Grove, Metra, schools, and shopping-this home truly checks all the boxes.
