This charming colonial home isn't just well-maintained; it's an invitation to a lifestyle! The spacious, open layout is ideal for hosting gatherings, while the classic, symmetrical design and welcoming atmosphere perfectly capture the timeless appeal of Park Ridge living. You'll find the open-concept kitchen and great room form a perfect hub for family life. The home features three distinct fireplaces adding ambiance and elegance, and a practical side entrance that opens into a mudroom with built-in seating and storage. Upstairs, the generously sized primary suite with 2 walk-in closets and large private bathroom with a soaking tub, a standing shower, and separate vanities offers a wonderful, tranquil retreat. Two of the secondary upstairs bedrooms share a Jack & Jill closet with generous space. An additional full, recently remodeled bathroom is also conveniently located upstairs. Head down to the expansive finished basement, which adds so much flexible space - imagine an area large enough for a fun playroom, a cozy guest bedroom or dedicated workspace, a great spot for entertaining, and more! This house has been meticulously cared for, with numerous recent updates including a new tankless hot water heater (2023), significant bathroom and basement improvements (2019), outdoor enhancements including a new patio, stairs, hardscaping and landscaping (2019), and newer appliances. Additional features include a dry basement and flood control system, Hardie Board siding, ample storage, and zoning/thermostats for two separate heating/cooling areas. All of this is nestled in the Southwest Woods area, an ideal location near wooded areas, great schools, shopping, highways, and public transportation, making it a place you'll truly love to call home.
