Property Description
SOLD in the Private Listing Network. Super spacious bungalow that blends timeless vintage charm with thoughtful modern updates-designed to impress even the most discerning buyer! Step inside to find classic arched doorways, elegant crown molding, 5" baseboards, updated resilient flooring and incredible natural light throughout. The inviting living room features an electric fireplace and opens to a charming enclosed front porch-perfect for morning coffee or winding down in the evening. The main level also includes two amply sized bedrooms and a full bathroom. You'll love cooking in the expansive kitchen which offers an oversized white Corian island with breakfast bar, newer stainless appliances including a gas range, stainless sink, rarely available walk-in pantry and a generous eating area. The separate formal dining room provides plentiful space for entertaining. Step from the kitchen into the rear deck, perfect for grilling and al fresco dining all summer long looking out onto your tastefully landscaped fully-fenced backyard. Upstairs, enjoy your astonishing full-floor primary suite sanctuary, featuring a versatile sitting area or home office (or potentially an additional bedroom). Complete with French doors, upgraded closets, and skylight in the primary bedroom area, this primary suite is like no other. Relax in your spa-like primary bathroom with upgraded double vanity, lighted mirror, separate shower and soaking tub. The fully finished basement adds incredible living space with nearly 1,400 square feet including an additional bedroom (with natural light!) and jack and jill full bathroom as well as a recreation room, wet bar, entertainment area and dedicated laundry zone. You'll love this rare addition for this area - central AC! Enjoy the private, fully fenced backyard with a deck and beautifully landscaped yard - ideal for outdoor entertaining. Plus a two-car garage with extended driveway. All of this next to everything you want in downtown Des Plaines, including shopping, dining, parks, festivals, and the Metra. This location has the best of all the area has to offer. A true blend of character, space, and functionality-this one feels like home the moment you walk in.
