01About this home

Outstanding opportunity to live in the heart of College View, a highly sought-after, centrally located area of Elmhurst. Although long-time owner has taken impeccable care of this traditional 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath home, the space has obvious upside for value and lifestyle. the layout can be transformed without major structural changes. It features a fabulous floor plan attractive to today's buyers, with all 4 good sized bedrooms (including en-suite primary) upstairs and first floor featuring family room, formal living and dining rooms, .5 bath, and eat-in kitchen. Basement is partially finished and has tremendous potential. Hardwood floors (including under carpet in Living Room), gas log fireplace, charming slate entryway, and plenty of closets/ storage are just the beginning. Newer mechanicals and replacement windows will give you peace of mind for many years to come. Roof, front section 3 years old, remaining portion 2012 along with windows, gutters, soffits, and fascia. Walk to York high school, Elmhurst University, downtown Elmhurst, MetraRail, shopping, Elmhurst Public Library, Wilder Park, and more. Although home is very well maintained, seller is conveying in "as is" condition. So much potential for a new owner to put their own personality on this College View gem as the surrounding area supports future value.
