Description

I'm excited to share details about a remarkable property located in the highly sought-after Farnham subdivision! This sprawling brick ranch, situated on over a quarter-acre lot with mature trees, is an ideal fit for those seeking single-level living or a spacious family home. Its prime location offers convenient access to downtown Wheaton, Town Square, and Danada shopping, and it's just a 0.6-mile walk to Seven Gables Park. This is a truly special neighborhood, perfect for families of all ages. The home is served by award-winning District 200 schools, with Whittier Elementary just 1.1 miles away and Edison Middle School 0.9 miles away, both easily accessible by a short walk or bike ride. This all-brick residence features a natural four-bedroom layout with generously sized rooms designed for both formal and informal entertaining. The kitchen is a true highlight, boasting a large center island with additional seating and a cozy fireplace. The formal living room showcases gleaming hardwood floors and offers beautiful views of the backyard, conveniently located just steps from the dining room and the main-level family room. The expansive primary bedroom suite is a private retreat, complete with his and hers baths, hardwood floors, abundant closet storage with built-in organizers, and private access to the large backyard patio. The primary bath itself is luxurious, featuring a walk-in cedar closet, a whirlpool tub, a separate walk-in shower, a bidet and heated floors. The convenient and recently updated second bathroom features a walk-in shower! All secondary bedrooms are appointed and have hardwood floors (2 bedrooms hardwood is under the carpet), ample closet storage with built-in organizers, and elegant plantation shutters. The large finished basement offers versatile space, perfect for children, a home gym, or a "man cave," and provides plenty of additional storage. The drywall finished 2.5 car attached garage features a gleaming epoxy floor. Ranch-style homes are rare, this is an exceptional opportunity to own a beautiful home in a truly special neighborhood.
