01About this home

Welcome to this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath two-story home in the highly desirable Chestnut Corners of Lake Zurich. Thoughtfully improved from top to bottom, this home seamlessly blends modern updates with timeless comfort in an unbeatable location. The exterior has been completely refreshed with brand new siding and roof (2024), along with Pella windows and sliding patio doors (2019) that fill the home with natural light. Enjoy the newly installed stone patio, professional landscaping, and a new white fiberglass privacy fence-creating the perfect outdoor retreat. The updated garage features a new door and epoxy flooring for a clean, finished look. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors throughout most of the home, complemented by fresh paint, architectural details like vaulted ceilings, crown molding, and wainscoting, and thoughtfully updated lighting-all on dimmer switches for added ambiance. The open-concept main level connects the kitchen, breakfast area, and living space, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. A standout feature is the custom media wall with built-ins, floating wood shelves, accent lighting, and an electric fireplace with a wood mantel-creating a warm and inviting focal point. Motorized light-filtering roller shades in the family room and Bali blinds throughout add both convenience and style. Upstairs, the spacious bedrooms offer comfort and functionality, including new carpet in three bedrooms and a beautifully designed bedroom featuring a custom accent wall. The primary suite impresses with vaulted ceilings, dual closets, and a spa-like bath with double vanity, soaking tub, and separate shower. Moen plumbing fixtures and updated faucets and showerheads are featured throughout the home. Additional highlights include a refreshed staircase, new tile flooring in the laundry room, and a finished partial basement with a large unfinished storage room and crawl space-offering excellent flexibility and storage options. Mechanically, the home is well-maintained with a newer water heater (2024), HVAC (2017), and kitchen appliances (2018). Located in a welcoming, family-friendly neighborhood with highly rated schools, this home is just minutes from parks, shopping, dining, downtown Lake Zurich, and the beach. Meticulously maintained with clear pride of ownership, this move-in ready home truly has it all.
