A rare find in the heart of Naperville's downtown/college area, this home was owned by the well-known Fawell family for over 60 years and is filled with warmth, character, and timeless charm. Thoughtful updates over the years have preserved its architectural beauty, including a formal living room with cathedral ceilings and wood burning fireplace, while the main level offers inviting spaces for gathering with a bright family room featuring walls of windows, cozy gas fireplace, and direct patio access. The beautifully updated kitchen boasts quality finishes like quartz countertops, new kitchen sink, newer appliances, updated lighting with under cabinet lighting, glass door cabinets, large island, and new hardware, while the floor plan includes flexible spaces for work or guests plus a main-floor bedroom and full bath. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a retreat with its own bath and walk-in closet unusual for a home of this vintage, while three additional bedrooms, a light-filled studio, and well-appointed baths offer plenty of room for everyone. The finished basement adds even more living space along with generous storage and second laundry area, complemented by a 2.5 detached garage, fenced backyard, and tree lined street. The location is unbeatable with walking or biking distance to downtown, North Central College, and award-winning District 203 schools, making this more than just a house but a special opportunity to own a piece of Naperville's history in one of its most coveted neighborhoods, the East Highlands. Recent updates include countertops (2025), flooring upstairs and bedrooms (2024), sewer clean out with 66' sewer line repair and 50 year trenchless repair warranty (2024), fence (2024), washer and dryer (2024), copper line replacement with 120' of galvanized water line replaced with type L copper (2024), new outside house faucet with isolation ball valve (2024), HVAC improvements including 2 way zone valve replacement on boiler, mini split condenser added to main level and second floor, and Ecobee 5 thermostat (2024), and Perma-Seal waterproofing with full interior drain tile system, sump pump with battery backup, trench drains, IceGuards, dedicated electrical outlet, and CarbonArmor straps for basement wall stabilization (2022).
