Welcome to the ultimate ranch experience at 425 N Knight-a home that perfectly blends charm, convenience, and a lifestyle you'll love. Over 2,500 combined living space ready for you! A great condo alternative with minimal stairs in and out of the home. Let's start with the exterior, where curb appeal is everything. Picture two charming bay windows welcoming you home. You've got an attached 1-car garage with a unique "Party Door," which opens to a carport and driveway, seamlessly connecting you to a detached 2-car garage. Whether you need extra storage, a space to tinker, or a space for outdoor gatherings, this setup has you covered. The backyard is fully fenced, providing privacy and room for outdoor fun, and the roof, about a year old, adds peace of mind for years to come. Now, step inside, where the interior radiates warmth and modern style. The moment you enter, the stunning espresso hardwood floors draw you in, setting the tone for the beautiful features ahead. To your right, you'll find the gorgeous stone fireplace-a cozy focal point perfect for relaxing or entertaining. But it's the open-concept, chef-inspired kitchen that steals the show. With rich mocha cabinets, stainless steel LG and GE appliances, and sleek glass subway tile, this kitchen was designed for those who love to cook and entertain. Granite countertops offer ample space for charcuterie boards, wine nights, or morning coffee from your Nespresso. Plus, modern conveniences like USB outlets on the backsplash, built-in trash storage in the island, and pull-out dovetail drawers make it a dream for any culinary enthusiast.The spacious living room offers versatility for both cozy nights in and hosting formal dinners, with room for a large sectional and a dining table. When it's time to rest, retreat to one of the three large bedrooms, each featuring newly refinished hardwood floors, ceiling fans, and built-in closet systems to keep everything organized. The main bathroom is a spa-like retreat with subway tile, a dual vanity, and a soaking tub with a glass enclosure. There's even a chic powder room with Kohler fixtures and plenty of storage for your essentials. Head downstairs to the finished basement, where over 1,300 square feet of additional living space awaits. Whether it's game night on the Switch, Sunday football, or a dedicated play area, the options are endless. A second fireplace adds a cozy touch, while two bonus rooms can be transformed into guest rooms, a home office, or even your Peloton studio. Built-ins make it easy to store everything from toys and games to collectibles, and there's even a dry bar for entertaining and wine storage. Finally, the detached 2-car garage is the ultimate bonus space. Imagine turning it into a home gym, man cave, craft room- for paints/glitter, or even a personal mechanic space. With room for motorcycles, classic cars, or a workshop, this space is yours to customize. And the location? You're just .7 miles from Uptown Park Ridge, where local favorites like the Pickwick Theater, Holt's, and Harp and Fiddle await. Whether you prefer Starbucks or Coffee on the Wall, you're covered.
