About this home
An exceptional opportunity awaits in this Mid-Century Gem in the desirable Triangle neighborhood of Mount Prospect. Every inch of this one-of-a-kind, meticulously upgraded 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home reflects the seller's extraordinary attention to detail and investment in quality. On the main level, you'll find two well-sized bedrooms, a light-filled living room, and a spacious dining area. The thoughtfully designed layout also includes a beautifully finished breezeway that connects to the showstopping garage. The kitchen is a true statement piece. A nostalgic nod to the 1950s, complete with custom appliances from Elmira Stove Works, frameless cabinetry, recycled glass countertops, Marmoleum flooring, touchless under-cabinet lighting, and Murano glass and chrome fixtures. The first-floor bathroom continues the mid-century flair with a floating vanity, handmade tiles, and a hand-painted cement tile floor. The upper level (completed in 2017) is dedicated entirely to a private primary suite, featuring its own HVAC system, a spacious walk-in closet, an elegant full bathroom, walk-in attic storage and custom upholstered built-in window storage. The lower level, remodeled in 2018, includes a large family room with porcelain terrazzo-style tiles from Spain (same tile throughout lower level including furnace room), mid-century modern style wood and cast iron art installations, recessed lighting, surround sound, a stylish full bathroom, and impressive storage throughout. Every feature of this home was thoughtfully selected, including custom window treatments, designer hardware and lighting, professionally organized closets, and hardwood floor-matched window sills. The breezeway, renovated in 2019, offers hand-painted cement tile flooring and baseboard heating, with direct access to the garage, front courtyard, backyard, and main home. The oversized 2.5-car garage is fully drywalled, painted, and climate-controlled with a mini-split system. It also features an epoxy floor, ceiling fans, utility shelving, and a brand-new door. Ideal as a workspace or an entertaining extension of the home. Outside, enjoy a professionally installed irrigation system, gutter guards, brick paver patio front courtyard, a retractable Sunbrella awning over brick paver patio, a high-end Tuff Shed for storage, and a fully replaced sewer line (house to sidewalk) in 2014. This home is a rare blend of smart functionality, timeless character, and modern upgrades perfectly suited for its next owner who values craftsmanship and comfort. Amazing location close to all that bustling downtown Mount Prospect has to offer with shopping, restaurants, library, Metra, festivals/events and much more to come!
