Sellers hate to leave their adorable Vintage Dutch Colonial home in Downtown Elgin's Gold Coast neighborhood. So much charm with solid original hardwood floors, oversized millwork beautiful solid staircase & tall ceilings! All Freshly painted with white doors and trim. Newer siding and windows! 2014, and most electrical is all updated. Welcoming enclosed front porch a great place to cozy up with a good book. So much charm in the lovely spacious living room that opens to a large dining area. Large country kitchen with updated countertops and cute built-in shelving with a charming back porch and pantry closet space. Full unfinished basement that's dry & usable w/1/2 bath. Fabulous deep fenced lot that sellers have spent much time enjoying & landscaping. Large garage for plenty of toys! Some exterior Painting done 2018. A must see home that you'll love as much as the sellers do!
