If it is space you're looking for - every nook and cranny of this home has been wisely and tastefully finished. Are you getting tired of stairs? This has 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath (remodeled from head to toe in 2022) on the 1st floor. Do you need extra space to work from home ~ this has 2 beautiful offices - one right in the heart of things and the other tucked away for when you just need to buckle down. How about when you just need a little time and space to get away - the 2nd floor features a large bedroom plus an additional living space for games, movies, studying, reading a book... How about entertaining friends and family? This basement (Permasealed in 2016 with a lifetime warranty) has been incredibly finished with a granite kitchenette w/island, beverage fridge, and a sink ~ but there's also room if you want to get in a workout while watching the game. The 4th spacious room could be an office or used as a bedroom + there is an incredible full bath + a light and bright beautifully finished laundry room w/folding counters attached to a huge walk-in closet tastefully finished by Inspired Closets. The kitchen features a built-in table w/seating for your daily meals but also flows into the large dining room that can easily seat 10 for those large gatherings. Lastly, the warm inviting family room begs you to start a fire while you doze off or read a book or gather everyone to watch your favorite show. This is only the 3rd owner of this home dating back to 1912 so it has been kept in pristine condition as it has been lovingly updated while maintaining the original woodwork, doors, crown molding, wood floors, arched doorways, and lead glass bookcases capturing the charm of yesteryear without sacrificing today's conveniences. And last but not least - sit back, relax and enjoy the private fully fenced professionally landscaped backyard w/paver and flagstone patio and firepit. Gutters all have gutter guards too. 312 E Illinois is just steps from the farmers market, downtown Wheaton, and either of Wheaton's train stations, Marianos, the CAC, athletic fields, and the ice rink. Everything has been touched, updated, and improved from the Pella windows and doors, to the 200 amp electric, to the Pottery Barn lighting so all you have to do is move in and enjoy. Award winning Wheaton District 200 schools. All of the appliances and hvac have been replaced in recent years. Do not sleep on this one! Agents see additional information for the myriad upgrades and improvements that have been made to this wonderful home in recent years. Hurry!
