Welcome to 609 S Western Ave in Champaign - a warm and well-maintained home with meaningful updates throughout. The large front yard features planters and an inviting front porch complete with a brand new front door and screen door. Inside, recent improvements include a fully updated kitchen from the past two years with new cabinets, appliances, sink, ceiling dry wall, and flooring. The full bathroom was enlarged and refreshed with a spacious walk-in shower, new vanity and sink, new windows, and a convenient washer and dryer. Most rooms have fresh paint and new flooring, while the family room also features new trim. Custom details add character, including a fireplace mantle and two matching shelves handcrafted by a local craftsman from locally sourced Amish Tiger Eye maple. A custom wall built-in with solid white maple drawers provides stylish storage, and the back stairs were solidly rebuilt about a year and a half ago. This is a comfortable, move-in-ready home that blends practical updates with personal charm. Schedule your showing before it's too late!
