Finding the perfect home and neighborhood can be challenging, but look no further! This charming vintage home is just a short walk from downtown Wheaton, where you can enjoy local favorites like My Half of the Sky Coffeeshop, grab a burger and beer at Burger Social, or satisfy your sweet tooth with a treat from Kimmer's Ice Cream. Situated across from Rathje Park, you'll love the scenic walkways, fishing ponds, playground, and baseball field just steps from your door. Inside, the cozy front foyer is perfect for curling up with a good book. The inviting living room, complete with a wood-burning fireplace, offers a warm space for entertaining or relaxing. The dining room features a beautiful original built-in Curio cabinet, adding character to your dining experience. The large family room, filled with natural light from three skylights, is the ideal spot for gatherings. The kitchen includes an eat-in area, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, and a deep farm-style sink. The main floor offers a bedroom with park views and a second smaller bedroom, perfect for use as an office or den. Upstairs, an enormous master suite awaits, offering serene views of the park and pond, two spacious walk-in closets, and an attached heated sunroom where you can enjoy your morning coffee. While the basement needs some work, it has great potential with additional rooms that could serve as bedrooms or flex spaces, and a roughed-in bathroom ready to be completed as a third bath. Outside, the private, shaded backyard is perfect for outdoor activities and relaxation. Recent upgrades include a new roof (2024), furnace (2024), central air (2024), concrete patio (2024), both bathrooms (2024), family room flooring (2024), and fresh landscaping (2024). Conveniently located near Mariano's, the Wheaton French Market, the Metra train station, and more, this home offers both charm and location. Don't miss the opportunity to make this beautiful vintage property your own. Home starts here!
