About this home
Ideally situated within walking distance to downtown Glen Ellyn, Benjamin Franklin Elementary, Glenbard West, the Prairie Path, parks, and Metra, 451 Lowell offers a rare combination of location, craftsmanship, living space, and backyard usability in one of Glen Ellyn's most desirable neighborhoods. Built in 2010, this home features four finished levels of living space thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A welcoming front porch leads into a bright and open interior featuring hardwood flooring throughout the entire main level, oversized baseboards, custom trim and millwork surrounding the windows and doors, updated LED lighting throughout, and exceptional natural light across every level of the home. The main living area is anchored by a dramatic two-story family room featuring a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, oversized windows, and Hunter Douglas plantation shutters that frame the space while allowing exceptional natural light throughout the day. The kitchen was designed as the centerpiece of the home with upgraded 42-inch custom Amish cabinetry, granite countertops, oversized island with seating, all new stainless steel appliances, under cabinet lighting, extensive pantry storage, and generous prep space. The large eating area flows directly into the family room and overlooks the professionally landscaped backyard through sliding glass doors, creating an ideal setup for both entertaining and everyday living. The main level also includes a spacious mudroom with access to the yard and the heated tandem three-car garage featuring new epoxy flooring and custom cabinetry/storage. The second level offers an ideal layout with a large loft space, second floor laundry room, Jack and Jill bath, and vaulted ceilings in both the primary suite and second bedroom. The primary suite offers exceptional scale with vaulted ceilings, large sitting area, two walk-in closets, and a spacious ensuite bath featuring dual vanities, and steam shower. The finished third level includes two additional bedrooms and flexible living space ideal for guests, office space, workout area, or additional recreation space. The finished basement adds another level of livability with a large recreation area, full bath, second laundry area with utility sink, office/flex space, and extensive storage. The backyard is one of the true standout features of the property. Professionally landscaped and exceptionally private, the outdoor space offers expansive usable green space, mature trees, multiple entertaining areas, large paver patio, and an upgraded rear shed with electricity and finished interior workspace, currently used as a craft room. Extensive recent improvements include all new carpet, Hunter Douglas window treatments, all new LED can lighting, dimmer switches, ceiling fans, exterior paint, water heater in 2022, A/C in 2026, all new toilets, new garage epoxy flooring, custom garage cabinetry, all new stainless steel appliances, and 6-inch gutters. A rare opportunity to own a truly turnkey home that combines one of Glen Ellyn's most desirable walk-to-town locations with expansive living space, exceptional backyard usability, and a level of craftsmanship and care that is increasingly difficult to find....
