724 Kensington Avenue

About this home

Welcome to 724 S. Kensington Ave - a beautifully updated and wonderfully charming home in the heart of La Grange. This thoughtfully improved three-bedroom, two-bath home blends timeless character with modern comfort in every detail. The home's curb appeal shines with a complete exterior renovation in 2023 featuring durable Hardie Board siding, a handsome stone facade, and classic lines that create a picture-perfect first impression. Inside, a gracious main level offers a spacious living room with gleaming oak floors, a dramatic wood-burning fireplace, and an open staircase that adds light and flow throughout. The fully renovated kitchen (2021) features a large island, modern white cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances, opening to a bright sunroom that doubles beautifully as a dining area or cozy family space. From here, a door leads into a newly improved mudroom with all the features including hardware, upper cabinets, lower bins and bench (2022) between the garage, side door, and sunroom / kitchen ... leading to a private stone patio with an outdoor fireplace - the perfect backdrop for relaxed evenings or gatherings with friends. Upstairs, all three bedrooms are comfortably arranged, including a large primary bedroom with dual closets and a private bath. A second full bath, also recently updated, serves the additional bedrooms. The primary suite offers generous space for both a sleeping area and a lounging or workspace area, creating a true retreat. The lower-level family room provides flexible living space with good ceiling height and epoxy floors - ideal for recreation, movies, play space, or guests. A walk-up attic offers additional storage or potential creative use with its vaulted ceiling design. With updated mechanicals (HVAC 2015, newer windows 2023) and a refreshed mudroom with added cabinetry, storage, and built-ins (2022), this home offers both peace of mind and timeless appeal in one of La Grange's most desirable neighborhoods.
