Classic appeal meets an unbeatable location! Step inside to a charming foyer that opens seamlessly to the main living areas. The main level showcases beautiful molding, hardwood floors, and updated oversized windows that fill the home with abundant natural light. Major updates include a brand-new roof and gutters and a newer boiler, offering the best of both worlds with hot-water heat and central air conditioning. The white kitchen overlooks the rear yard and features cabinetry to the ceiling and a convenient walk-in pantry. The home offers two full bathrooms and a wood-burning fireplace (as is), adding to its timeless character. The finished basement provides exceptional additional living space, including a rec room, playroom or craft area, full bath, office space, laundry room, and ample storage. Set on a 50 x 159 lot, the property also includes a garage with a brand-new roof. Ideally located close to Forest Glen Elementary, Hadley Middle School, Glenbard West High School, Lake Ellyn, the Village, and the Metra-this is a rare opportunity to enjoy classic charm, thoughtful updates, and a truly walkable Glen Ellyn lifestyle.
