This lovely 4-bedroom home sits on a lot-offering space, privacy, and charm, all just minutes from everything. As you arrive, the home's character greets you immediately with a large covered front porch and double entry doors. Step inside to a spacious foyer that opens to a light-filled living room, featuring a wall of windows that flood the space with natural light. A formal dining room sits just off the living room, ideal for entertaining and holiday gatherings. The kitchen is centrally located with plenty of cabinetry and room for a table, while a few steps down brings you to the cozy family room with views of the backyard. A convenient powder room completes this level. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite and private bath featuring a walk-in shower. Just outside the primary suite, there's even an extra walk-in closet for added storage. The second bedroom is nearly the same size and also includes a walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms and a large hall bath also sit upstairs. The finished basement offers a full bar with sink, flexible space for recreation, a game room, or an additional hangout area. You'll also find the laundry area and a large crawl space perfect for extra storage. This cul-du-sac offers a safe setting for your family in a prime location. Walk to Kingsley Elementary, Downers Grove South High School, and several nearby parks and sports courts. A truly special opportunity in a sought-after neighborhood! Selling AS-IS.
