This beautiful farmhouse in historic La Fox is updated throughout and truly a must see! This home has a stunning blend of modern updates while maintaining so much vintage charm, including the original front door and stained glass windows. Crown molding throughout and hardwood flooring on the main level. The kitchen features white 42inch cabinets, stainless steel appliances, pot filler faucet, and a butler's pantry. The nice marble-topped kitchen island and stools are included! There is a charming built-in table and booths in the dining room, and French doors lead into the cozy family room. The main level also has a laundry room and a full bathroom. A newly rebuilt oak front staircase and a back staircase lead to the second level, featuring a spacious primary bedroom with a cozy reading nook and 2 additional generous sized bedrooms. These share an updated bathroom with a soaker tub and separate shower. The front and driveway-side porches were recently totally rebuilt and the large deck on the right of the house has a new Trex railing and posts. This home sits on a large .59 acre lot with gorgeous, mature landscaping and a fire pit. There is also an insulated 2.5 car detached garage and a full unfinished basement. Ideally situated very near the La Fox Metra station (hello commuters!) this unincorporated area has low property taxes and is within the highly desirable Geneva school district. This house has a quiet country feel while being only minutes from shopping and restaurants! Roof: 2019; siding and new wrap insulation: 2021; water heater: 2021; carpet: 2019.
