Welcome to this Charming and Remodeled (mostly in 2019) 4 bedroom 2 bath home with a partially finished basement and 1 car garage. The home was freshly painted on the first and 2nd floors in Oct. 2026. The seller believes the floor on the main level is bamboo (installed in 2019). The large living room and separate dining room with beautiful floors, custom built in (makes a great bookcase) and gorgeous woodwork greets you and your guests upon entering. Lovely wood staircase leads to the 2nd level bedrooms and bath. You will also find a light and bright sun room off the living room behind the woodburning fireplace. This is a great place for reading a book and/or growing your plants. It features built in storage and seating. The updated (mostly in 2019) kitchen features 42" white cabinets including a lazy susan, and pull out drawers in the pantry cabinet, granite counters, SS appliances including a new dishwasher (2026), canned lighting, and 2 newer (2019) windows including one over the sink. Upstairs you will find 4 carpeted bedrooms (sellers used one as a large walk in closet) and a full bath that was updated in 2019. The lower level features a rec room with carpet for family fun and entertaining, another carpeted room which could be an office, toy room, craft room, workout room, etc., a beautifully remodeled full bath with ceramic tiled floor (2019), huge laundry area with washer and dryer (2019) and a built in folding table, plus a mechanical room with the newer (Oct. 2025) boiler (radiators flushed then too). Also a couple storage spots. New (2026) wrap around deck off the dining room leads out to the fenced backyard and the garage. Backyard fence has a gate off the deck by the driveway. The fence in front yard (freshly painted 2026) has 2 gates - one leads to the front door the other for the driveway. Pipes from the street to the house were replaced by the city in 2025. Many newer storm windows added in 2019. Great location near downtown, restaurants, shops, parks and the 2 Metra stations. Also close to I-90.
Southeast Elgin, located between the Fox River and I-90, is a residential and industrial Elgin neighborhood with river-adjacent green space and a working-corridor feel. Character concentrates around the Randall Road and Larkin Avenue corridor, where big-box retail, local eateries, and steady traffic set the pace. Housing ranges from mid-century ranches to newer subdivisions, with pockets of mature trees and wide setbacks. The Fox River Trail and nearby parks shape an outdoors-forward routine along the water. Cultural anchors nearby include the Hemmens Cultural Center, Elgin Public Museum, and Elgin Symphony Orchestra for nights out beyond the main arterials.
