Back in the day, making a mixtape took effort. You hit record at the perfect moment, crossed your fingers between songs, and still ended up with weird gaps and awkward transitions. That's how a lot of renovations feel, like someone stitched together the good parts and hoped you wouldn't notice the skips. Not this time. 5419 Fairmount is the playlist you didn't have to make. Every finish is on point. Every room flows. Thoughtfully renovated in 2022, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom split-level in Downers Grove's Randall Park neighborhood plays like a greatest hits album with no filler tracks. Virtually everything was replaced in 2022, including the roof, Hardie Board siding, HVAC, double-paned windows, solid interior doors, quartz countertops, kitchen cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and more. Everything's been remastered so the whole album plays cleanly. The main level hits all the right notes from the start. A large picture window lights up the living room, where warm oak floors and white trim keep the tone clean and classic. The kitchen is the lead single, anchored by a spacious island with quartz countertops, brass pendant lighting, and Shaker cabinetry that harmonizes beautifully with the custom backsplash and built-in buffet. There's even a window perfectly placed above the sink so you can look out over the yard while the coffee brews. Step down to the finished lower level, and the tempo becomes more relaxed. This space is made for movie nights, gaming marathons, or quiet evenings in, with room to relax, regroup, or hit pause. The full second bath with crisp tile and matte black finishes ensures no one misses a beat. A separate laundry room with utility sink and additional storage space keeps things practical. Out back, the tempo slows into something more acoustic. Raised garden beds frame a fully fenced yard, while the paver patio invites you to grill, gather, and unwind. The oversized two-car garage adds versatility with extra room for a workbench, bikes, or holiday bins that won't kill the harmony of your indoor space. Located less than a mile from downtown Downers Grove, where the tempo picks up with coffee shops, boutiques, and dining that plays on repeat. Express Metra access is just minutes away, along with local places that will stay in your regular rotation. 5419 Fairmount is a thoughtfully renovated home that's ready to go from the moment you press play.

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.
