This distinguished two-story colonial residence has undergone comprehensive renovations, ensuring each detail is refined to the highest standard. Notable upgrades and recent installations include an expansive screened sunroom and brick paver patio (2022) overlooking the professionally landscaped fenced in yard offering the perfect space for back yard fun. All interior updates were done in 2019: A new white kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances and center island. Newer premium white oak hardwood flooring on the main level. The fully finished basement with a kitchenette offers great additional space for entertaining, recreation or movie time. The second floor features 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms as well as a convenient laundry space. A 2nd set of washer and dryer can be installed in the original laundry space in the basement. The list of recent upgrades continues with an epoxy-floored garage, fresh interior paint and brand new carpet in the basement (8/4/2026!), as well as updated windows, roofing, siding, and HVAC system. The playset installed in 2019 will remain with the home. This home offers exceptional curb appeal, highlighted by a welcoming front porch. Its prime location provides convenient pedestrian access to local schools and is within close proximity to the shops, dining, and commuter rail station of downtown Downers Grove. Welcome home!
