Property Description

Filled with enchanting charm, this Somonauk Street residence reflects 37 years of proud ownership. A brick paver patio and brick walkways, and lush, multi-layered foliage naturally frame the front maintenance-free welcoming porch. Step inside to a lovely living room featuring a timeless wood-burning brick fireplace, white painted recessed bookshelves, and an ornate open staircase. Natural light fills this favorite gathering space, while evening sunsets create a warm and inviting setting. Detailed character continues through a wide arched opening into the dining room, revealing a sun-drenched panoramic picture window, elegant window shades, and a frosted glass ceiling light fan with gold detail. Solid white paneled doors with vintage glass knobs, light cream millwork, soft white wall color, and windows galore adorn the heart of this adorable home. Savor a cup of coffee while the sunrise floods the inviting kitchen in the early morning. Uniquely designed entertainment center highlights a wine rack and serving center, wine, or coffee bar; perfect for hosting special occasions! Transitional warm wood cabinetry with dovetail drawers, stainless steel appliances including a new 2025 dishwasher, Broan rangehood, convection oven and 5-burner gas stove complete this chef's delight cooking space. The family room hosts a white ceiling light fan, soft gray carpeting, and an octagon accent window. Andersen glass door slides open to an outdoor tranquil retreat presenting tiered decking, a patio, garden shed with electric, firepit sitting area, abundant landscaping, flower gardens, beautiful mature trees, and arbors that lead you to magical settings you will LOVE! An arched side-yard door opens into this captivating outdoor haven. A powder room with a pedestal sink and Kohler toilet serves the main level. Upstairs, the ornate open staircase leads to a full modern bathroom with appealing gray and white color scheme, and three bedrooms, all with ceiling-light fans. One bedroom or office has solid wood flooring. The sellers completed exterior and interior restoration work in 2021-2022, including new siding, roofing, gutters, and gutter guards! In 2019, Hero Heating & Air Conditioning installed a new furnace, air conditioning system, and central humidifier. Newer Andersen windows add an additional value to this captivating one and a half story home. Glass block windows bring natural light into the lower-level basement equipped with a GE washer, gas dryer, cast iron side-by-side sink, 96% energy efficient furnace, Honeywell humidifier, storage shelving, freezer, and mini-refrigerator.
