*Multiple Offers Received* The picture of pure perfection: this impeccable masterpiece captivates in one of Downers Groves most desirable walk-to-town, train and schools location. Rarely available - the trifecta of location, condition and space all set upon a gorgeous 60x306 lot. This impeccably updated home is an absolute triumph presenting a blend of original architectural detailing and modern-day appointments. The entrance sets the stage as a sun-lit entrance leading to the magazine worthy formal living room with stone fireplace. The main level flows effortlessly from a spacious formal dining room through the original pocket doors to the family room. An extensive and thoughtful renovation in 2023 brought the reimagining of the kitchen, with its classic white cabinetry, modern trim, striking brass accent Viking hood and stainless-steel appliances including Viking and Cosmo. The breakfast nook enjoys morning sunrises. Just off the main living space is an expansive office/first floor bedroom that is dramatically embraced by gorgeous windows. A partially finished walkout basement level provides extra space for entertaining with a recreation room, fourth bedroom laundry room and storage. Residing on the second level are three large bedrooms with load of personality. This includes the private primary bedroom suite with nooks and storage, and two more bedrooms with charming dormers and space for growing families. You'll be immediately entranced by the screened in porch perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. The backyard is 300+ feet deep, allowing nature to be right outside your back door. Stunning windows, original moldings and hardwood floors are among the many original elements that embrace the home's charm. The recently updated electrical, plumbing, windows, roof, mechanicals and more means less work and more enjoyment. A gorgeous block with grand vintage homes. Blocks to coveted Hillcrest & Avery Coonley schools. Exquisitely envisioned for today's lifestyle with an artful eye to the past, this home is a rare jewel in the heart of town.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
