This charming energy-efficient cottage home surrounded by flowers offers three bedrooms and one bathroom in a fantastic West Urbana location, on a quiet street just blocks from the UIUC campus, Carle Park, and downtown. Hardwood floors run throughout the living spaces, with a high-efficiency soapstone wood stove adding a cozy touch to the bright and sunny living room. A dedicated dining area connects the living room and kitchen, creating a seamless space for entertaining or enjoying everyday meals. The cheerful kitchen was remodeled in 2022 and features quartz[FC1] countertops, open shelving, a stylish backsplash, tile flooring, and a new electric stove. One bedroom can be used as a study, with a built-in desk. One of the home's highlights is the pine-paneled sunroom, offering vaulted ceilings and beautiful views of the privacy-fenced backyard. The professionally landscaped outdoor areas are spectacular throughout the growing season, with magnolia, lilacs, weeping cherry, wisteria, clematis, azaleas, flowering quince, Japanese maples, hydrangeas, peonies, Rose of Sharon, and a native pollinator garden. Front and back decks, stone walkways, and a concrete patio make perfect spaces for outdoor relaxing, gardening, or hosting gatherings. This home is also impressively energy efficient, equipped with solar panels installed by New Prairie and a mini-split heat pump system providing zoned heating and cooling for year-round comfort and reduced utility costs. Additional updates include a newer roof and gutters, providing peace of mind for the next owners. A charming home in a location you're sure to love.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
