01About this home

ALL OFFERS WILL BE REVIEWED AT 7PM, SAT. APRIL 11. Nestled on a serene street in highly sought-after South Elmhurst, this completely reimagined home is the perfect blend of modern luxury and timeless charm. Thoughtfully updated from top to bottom, every detail has been carefully considered to create a space that's as functional as it is beautiful. The star of the upper level is the stunning primary suite, a true retreat featuring two spacious walk-in closets, a cozy window seat, and a spa-like bathroom with an oversized steam shower. Here, you'll find a sleek dual vanity with undermount lighting, a large walk-in shower, and a private water closet. Two additional generously-sized bedrooms and a hallway bathroom with a soaking tub complete the upstairs. The main level is a dream for both daily living and entertaining. Walls have been removed to create a light-filled, open-concept design that flows effortlessly. The brand-new chef's kitchen boasts crisp white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and a show-stopping island with storage and seating. Warm hardwood floors run throughout the living and dining rooms, where large windows flood the space with natural light. This level also features a versatile bedroom (currently used as an office) and a full bathroom. The newly transformed basement takes functionality to the next level. The spacious main recreation area has space for relaxation with a TV and beautiful built-ins plus plenty of room for a kids play area. The laundry room now includes custom cabinetry, lighting, a sink, and plenty of space for folding, hanging, and storage. There is an additional storage room with workbench. A refreshed mudroom area adds even more convenience and a powder room adds practicality to this level. Step outside to your private backyard oasis which is fully fenced and surrounded by lush landscaping including stunning hydrangea trees and features a stamped concrete patio and landscape lighting. Close to parks, schools, the neighborhood pool, shopping and expressway access, the location can't be beat.
