Description

Beautiful 5-bedroom 3-full bathroom single family home in the heart of Des Plaines. This particular home is in all the great school districts in the area. Central academy School (rated 10 of 10), Chippewa middle school (rated 8 of 10) and Maine West High School (rated 8 out of 10). You'll enjoy your massive foyer that opens up to a oversized separate dining room and family room. Then as you walk towards your massive open concept kitchen /dining room space you'll see your giant granite island with a large breakfast bar enough for (3) bar stools comfortably, newer stainless-steel appliances in pristine condition. Gorgeous and well-thought-out color scheme for the Granite countertops and Cherry colored cabinets. ((Cabinets can easily be painted a different color for a nominal cost)). Hardwood floors are in great shape. The home has travertine floors throughout the first floor and carpets throughout the second. The second floor is bright and airy with (4) bedrooms up and (1) on the main level. Beautiful master en suite with (glass enclosure stand up shower) & separate Jacuzzi bathtub and granite countertops, (double vanity sinks & travertine floors) and a Huge Master Walk-in closet. There's an open area for sitting/den/office on the second floor, it's (13 x 11) you could even wall it up and make it a bedroom if five bedrooms aren't enough for your family. 5th bedroom on the main floor is now used as an office but it could easily be use as an in-law suite or fifth bedroom. The whole house was custom painted a few years ago. Updates are as follows: New hot water heater installed 2019. 2 new sump pumps 1 in 2017 and 1 in 2020. ALL new kitchen appliances & washer & dryer purchased brand new and installed 2015 & they are in great shape. Basement was freshly painted 2020 and is partial and unfinished and has plenty of room for improvements. ((DOUBLE SUMPS IN THE BASEMENT)). The Backyard is HUGE with a Massive (PVC) fenced-in yard and a large 2.5 car garage with a driveway that can accommodate 4-5 cars too. New City approved plans for Metra stop just a couple blocks away that will have a Express line to the O'hare and Ogilvie Transportation Center Downtown. Super close to everything, (4) parks within walking distance. Downtown, Library, Shopping & Metra with in close proximity too, only about .5 miles away... ((This house and area really do not disappoint!))
