About this home

Step into timeless craftsmanship just a short walk from downtown Glen Ellyn's shops, dining, and Metra access. This 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath home with hardwood floors sits on a beautifully landscaped 0.27-acre lot and blends original 1922 character with everyday livability. A screened front porch welcomes you in. The living room features a brick fireplace, and French doors open to a south-facing heated sunroom that makes an ideal home office. The dining room leads to a large kitchen with plentiful cabinet space, granite counters, updated stainless appliances and a big pantry. The primary bedroom and adjoining 12x9 sitting room (dressing room, nursery or reading nook) are also on the main level, steps from the remodeled full bath with double sinks and a heated floor. Down the hall, a family room with built-in storage opens through French doors to the back deck. Upstairs are two bedrooms with abundant storage, great for guests, kids or a second office. The lower level adds a 22x12 rec room, the second full bath, a laundry room and an 18x11 storage room. Three-zone heating, central AC, and an owned solar array (4.9kW, 2020, no lease) keep the house comfortable and the average electric bill around $20/month.
