Description

This enchanting American Four Square effortlessly combines classic charm with contemporary convenience. The heart of the home is its expansive, modern kitchen, which boasts granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, large island, convenient pantry closet, and large eating area. And...who needs a wet bar when you've got 2 refrigerated beverage drawers by the roomy second sink and the door to deck for effortless entertaining? The main level continues to impress with a formal dining room featuring vintage-style wallpaper, a cozy living/front room highlighted by a woodburning fireplace with original marble mantle surround, pocket doors, and a welcoming foyer with a craftsman-style staircase. Moving up to the second floor, you'll find a spacious master bedroom that includes an en suite bathroom with 2 skylights, walk-in closet and a versatile reading/computer nook. This level also features three additional well-sized bedrooms and a stylishly remodeled hall bathroom. The floored and foam-insulated attic can be used for storage of out-of-season clothes, kid's toys, suitcases, etc., or can be finished for additional living space. The home doesn't stop there: the mostly finished basement offers a fantastic space for relaxation (whether for children or sports enthusiasts) providing an extra dimension of versatility to the home. Throughout the house, you'll appreciate the rich details such as hardwood floors, oversized oak trim, and crown molding, all accentuated by abundant tall windows that fill the rooms with natural light. Situated in the historic district of West Dundee, this property not only provides a beautiful home but also offers a delightful living experience with its large back deck that is easily accessed from the kitchen and is shaded by an incredibly cool tree and a covered front porch complete with a charming swing. The surrounding neighborhood enhances this home's appeal with its wide streets, mature trees, and welcoming sidewalks. Friendly neighbors and a vibrant community atmosphere make this area truly special - 2nd St. was voted Best Block in America by Good Morning America (search youtube for video)! Just a few of the fun things to do are: Wine Down Wednesdays, Movies in the Park, Concerts in the Park, Parades, etc.. Other nearby features are: 3 parks within a few blocks, Dundee Highlands Elementary School within 2 blocks, 2 blocks to the pedestrian bridge that leads to the 40-mile Fox River Bike Trail, an old-fashioned candy store, restaurants, salons, music venue, antique stores, and more!
