A second FULL bath with shower adds even more functionality. A separate unfinished space, multiple closets, and a large utility/laundry room provide plenty of room for storage and the home's mechanical systems. The back yard features a storage shed, enclosed fenced yard, and a large deck. Nearby parks, paths, and the Carol Stream Park District Recreational Center offer ample opportunities for an active lifestyle. Convenient access to North Avenue (Route 64), Army Trail Road, shopping, dining, and I-355 makes getting around easy.
