Here is a stunning property you're going to want to see! This lovely home is move-in ready having been completely remodeled and updated over recent years. Located in the very desirable Niles Emerson Place neighborhood, it is part of the Park Ridge Elementary and Maine South School Districts. There is an extensive list of home improvements. Highlights include: a top-level 4th bedroom addition, currently being used as a hobby/family room, which also has a large walk-in closet that could be converted into a full en suite bathroom, as well as a corner office for today's work-from-home needs. A cozy covered front porch provides a nice exterior finish to the addition. The impressive kitchen was remodeled in 2015 using top quality custom built Amish cabinets with LED lighting beneath, canned lights, granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances. All the windows in the home have been replaced with higher-end Pella and other quality brands (All window blinds included!). There is hardwood or laminate flooring throughout, including newer 3" plank wood in the living room. The lower-level spacious family room has a beautiful new stone corner gas fireplace. Both full bathrooms are attractively remodeled. The attached garage is a massive 24.8 x 22 ft large. The home has an energy saving 3 kw solar system installed in 2012 that will lower your electric bills. There is also a new whole house 16 kw Generac generator, new flood control system, and newer sump pump with battery backup. A built-in gas grill installed in 2021 will stay with new owners. The roof, gutters and soffits were all new in 2006 with the addition. Other notable features include: a dry concrete crawl space, new high efficiency furnace and new 50-gallon HWT (2017), Trane C/A unit (2009), brand new garage door opener and much more. The large yard is fully fenced-in with white picket vinyl maintenance-free fencing. The beautifully landscaped grounds all around this home add wonderful curb appeal. Come and see this amazing home!
