The perfect cul-de-sac location sets the scene for this beautiful home in desirable Northgate. The dreamy floor plan allows for modern living with the ideal combination of open and private spaces. The kitchen is the heart of the home and this one features a huge island perfect for gathering, casual eating, or interacting with guests. You'll enjoy abundant cabinetry for storage, stainless appliances, granite countertops, and easy flow to the dining room. It's open to the expansive family room with plenty of space for your sectional and large screen tv with room left over for a hobby niche, workspace for kids, or game table. Off the family room there is a half bathroom and a large laundry/mudroom that can serve as a perfect "drop zone" where you can easily add hooks or cubbies for backpacks, coats, and shoes. You'll find wood flooring, on-trend paint colors, updated lighting, and tons of windows that bring in lots of natural light throughout the main and lower levels. Head upstairs to discover the main bedroom with a custom closet and private bath, 2 secondary bedrooms, and a hall bath with dual sinks and a tub/shower combination. After a few more steps up you'll find the exceptionally sized 4th bedroom full of endless possibilities. The current owner is using it for an office and workout space and we've seen others use it to create charming playrooms, recreation and game rooms, or dramatically converted to a primary suite! With plenty of room to relax or play, the corner lot offers the opportunity to create your own oasis-hang your string lights and gather your friends! Most windows have been replaced and there have been numerous updates over the years. The location is wonderful with easy access to Centennial park, tennis courts, playground & Riley school. You'll love the Northgate neighborhood where pride of ownership is evident, and residents come together for events & activities throughout the year. Located within the award-winning Buffalo Grove High School District plus you'll enjoy other area amenities including Lake Arlington, Camelot Park & pool, abundant shops & restaurants, & a short drive to downtown Arlington Heights & the Metra train.
