About this House

All that you'd expect from a Silk Stocking home...and then some! If you dream of a larger house that blends modern updates and amenities with original charm...this could be it. Sought after Silk Stocking neighborhood, 5 bedroom house w/ a 75' frontage - the hardwood floors, crown molding, decorative ceiling tiles, separate dining room & custom built-ins maintain the character of the home. Space-pac central a/c, skylight, custom cabinetry and back deck w/ retracting awning add to the more contemporary updates. Rec room, workshop, and extra office / play space are in the basement. Sunroom & a mud room...yep totally could be the one. This fabulous kitchen is certainly not lacking! Granite/poly counters in abundance, custom cabinetry has more than enough room to store all your kitchen gadgets, eating area large enough for full size table, and all that leading to the deck through Anderson sliding glass door. Mud room (or butler pantry?) off the kitchen also with deck access. Do you prefer the master bedroom on the main floor or upstairs? You choose! 5 ample sized bedrooms w/ XL closet space + 1 office in bsmt. Catch some vitamin D through floor to ceiling windows in one of the upstairs bedrooms - wonderful opportunity for a studio or workspace as well. Swing on the covered front porch or entertain on the back deck with awning all year around. Plenty of space in the yard front or back for all your outdoor needs. Home warranty included. Walking distance to downtown Des Plaines. Metra, Library, shopping and fun! Walk through 734 Laurel over and over with the 3D interactive tour and prepare to fall in love.
