This home boasts a bright and open layout with hardwood floors throughout (newer in kitchen), premium finishes, high ceilings, and an upgraded, Shaker-cabinet, chef-inspired kitchen with high end stainless appliances, backsplash, granite counters, breakfast bar and island that transitions through double pocket doors into a private home office or fourth bedroom.

Enjoy the extra living space in the tastefully-finished basement (2018) with 8-ft ceilings, a large family room, vinyl-wood flooring, wall-mounted decorative fireplace, spacious bedroom with stylish barn door, and the stunning stone-tiled bath featuring glass door and upscale, spa-like shower. Enhancing this sustainable home is a high capacity HVAC in 2025 and a beautiful, newly-landscaped yard with sod, privacy fence and a spacious deck for all your entertaining needs! This home is also minutes to the forest preserve bike/hiking paths, pool, tennis/pickleball courts, local parks, schools, and I-290 for a swift, effortless commute to Chicago! **This is a rare opportunity to own a high-performance home that offers both incredible value and a reduced carbon footprint.** A must see!...
