Do not miss your chance to own a truly unique property! Character abounds in this three-bedroom, two-and-half bath, move-in ready house. As you walk through the double-door front entry you are immediately greeted with charm and old-world craftsmanship. From the stunning woodwork in the entryway to the custom millwork around the door casings, this home has so much to offer. Three pairs of pocket doors on the main floor provide added appeal and privacy when needed. The soaring 10-foot ceilings on the main level living spaces provide a grand feel. Meticulously modernized while honoring the home's history, every update was thoughtfully planned to make the most of the space available. This turn-key property features bamboo hardwood flooring in the living and dining rooms, upgraded bathrooms and a large yard. In addition to the bamboo flooring, the living room includes a large bay window that provides natural light and a perfect view of Purdy Park across the street. Upstairs you will find a large master bedroom boasting an ensuite and a spacious closet, two bedrooms and a renovated full bathroom. There are little surprises throughout the house as well, including a butler's staircase leading from the second level to the beautifully updated kitchen which includes all stainless-steel appliances, medium cherry cabinets and luxury vinyl plank flooring. The kitchen leads into the comfortable family room. From there, walk outside and you will find a park-like setting complete with a large patio, perfect for entertaining, a two-car garage, with one heated bay, and a shed for added storage. In addition to owning an outstanding home in a quaint small-town feel, you are not far away from entertainment. If you are looking for outdoor adventure, Chief Shabbona Forest Preserve, Shabbona Lake State Park and Indian Creek Country Club are just minutes away, while nearby Northern Illinois University has everything from sporting events to concerts. The current owners have lovingly cared for this property for 35 years and are ready to hand this house off to its next caretakers so they can add their story to the home.
