Property Description
First Time on the Market! Offered by the original owner of over 50 years, this cherished raised ranch in the heart of Downers Grove's Prentiss Brook Terrace subdivision is ready for new memories to be made. Thoughtfully cared for over the decades, this home combines classic design & layout with timeless functionality in a location that simply can't be beat. Situated on a quiet dead-end street, the property boasts a beautifully landscaped yard. Perfect perennials are scattered across the stone framed areas, creating a picturesque outdoor setting. In the back, towering pine trees and a majestic maple offer natural shade and privacy. Upon entering the front door, you're greeted by a dramatic, dark-stained and white open-railed up/down staircase - a striking focal point that sets the tone for the inviting interior. The main level features surprisingly large, sun-filled living and dining areas, three perfectly sized bedrooms (including a primary with en suite), and an updated eat-in kitchen with some stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, a pantry closet, and a stone backsplash. Glass slider doors lead to a huge 20' x 12' deck - great for barbecues and outdoor furniture sets. Imagine enjoying your morning cup-of-joe and entertaining all three seasons on this lovely extension of your living space. Downstairs, a large-yet-cozy family room with a fireplace is perfect for movie nights or gatherings. A 4th bedroom (great for guests), a convenient laundry area, and a fun retro half-bath round out this lower space. Storage is abundant throughout, with numerous closets, an oversized 2-car garage (nearly 26' deep and 20' wide plus an additional 12' x 3' area) - ideal for racks and getting those extra needed items out of the way. Around back, there's even a significant under-deck storage area. Freshly and professionally painted throughout the interior. This home is located within the highly sought-after District 58/99 school boundaries and is a short walk to both Kingsley Elementary and Downers Grove South High School. Enjoy close proximity to Ruth Powers, McCollum and O'Brien Parks, and local shopping and dining favorites. Commuters will appreciate the easy access to I-355. Whether you're ready to move right in or looking to personalize with your own decorative touches, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special home in one of Downers Grove's most established neighborhoods.
