Description

Beautiful, large lot in outstanding location. One-owner, solid built, all brick step-ranch in desirable country club section of LaGrange. Incredibly convenient to so many area attractions: schools, parks, shopping, expressways, and so much more. Main level features generous-sized living room & dining room with custom crown molding. Huge kitchen with eating area. Three bedrooms on main level including an ensuite primary bedroom. Additional full hall bath. Loads of closet space. The numerous extra-large windows flood the house with sun light. The lower level has above grade windows that also provide tons of natural light. There is a lovely family room with an expansive custom brick fireplace with gas starter and screen. Wood beamed ceiling. Opens to a large game room with lots of natural light. There are 2 additional bedrooms, a full bath and an office with a glass wall for an open feel. There is also a mechanical/laundry room on this level. New 75-gallon hot water tank. Central Vacuum. Loads of storage areas and closet space. Home needs updating, but the good bones, large house/rooms, and great location make it a perfect house to rehab. The oversized lot has a lovely, deep rear yard. The detached all brick garage is over-sized for tons of storage. The possibilities are endless in this ideally located home. Estate, so sold "as is."

    "LaGrange is a beautiful town with a vibrant downtown area that has many fantastic restaurants and shops. The two historic train stations allow for a quick 20 minute ride to Union station. It feels incredibly safe and people are out and about at all times of the day. The schools are some of the best in Illinois and people who live here clearly prioritize family and education. I wouldn’t move anywhere else. "
