01About this home

This is the one you've been waiting for - stellar location, excellent floorplan, tastefully updated. Located in the highly sought after Davis School neighborhood, this beautiful home is incredible inside and out. First impressions count and the stunning family room off the entryway doesn't disappoint. This peaceful retreat with its arched opening, beamed ceiling and decorative fireplace is loaded with character. The floor to ceiling windows overlooking the tree-lined front yard create a calm, peaceful space to relax or work. Behind the family room lies the heart of the home, the gorgeous, open concept kitchen/living/dining space. The thoughtfully designed and renovated kitchen provides great storage, a large island for meal prep/serving and breakfast bar. The huge open living/dining space offers a large TV area with stunning flagstone fireplace, oversized dining space with built-in corner cabinet as well as a perfect nook for an office or playroom. The wall of windows at the back of house offers tons of light and view of the awesome backyard. The second floor offers four bedrooms, two full bathrooms and a linen closet. The master suite is offset from the rest of the second floor and has two walk-in closets (one cedar-lined) and master bath with whirlpool tub, separate walk-in shower and his/hers vanities with adjoining make-up vanity. The redesigned basement provides additional living space, perfect for rec room, office or separate guest space as well as laundry, storage/workspace and a half bath. As for the outdoor space, WOW! The yard is amazing. The gorgeous, 30x20 brick paver patio with built-in firepit and flower beds offers the perfect backyard oasis for relaxing and entertaining. The open yard space is great for sports and playtime. The in-town location cannot be beat - walk to schools, parks as well as both downtown St. Charles and Geneva, close to shopping at The Commons and Randall Road, restaurants minutes away in every direction and so much more! The home has been meticulously cared for; from top to bottom, everything has been routinely serviced and maintained. Since purchase, the owner has renovated the interior and exterior, investing over 200K in improvements (see extensive list of improvements under additional information). With many new construction and million plus homes in the vicinity, a discerning buyer will clearly see the incredible value this wonderful house offers.
