The beautiful kitchen features white hickory cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and quartz countertops. Walk out from the kitchen to your back porch, fully fenced backyard, gorgeous landscaping and 2.5 car detached garage with electric vehicle charging outlet.

What the Sellers Love about their Home: "The house is fully updated but still retains charming features such as the original tin ceilings on the main level, arched doorways, and vaulted ceilings on the second floor. An extensive variety of flowers bloom early spring through mid fall and all the gardens are low maintenance because only perennials have been planted. They can be enjoyed from the paved backyard area or the wide grassy side-yard. The 2.5 car garage also built-in storage. The house is a 5 minutes walk to downtown Lemont and convenient to major highways/shopping." Move in just in time for the start of Spring!

R-4A
Single-Family Preservation And Infill District
This district is intended to regulate the height, building coverage, and impervious surface coverage of residential dwelling units in the older established neighborhoods of the Village. Specifically, the district's restrictions are intended to prevent the overcrowding of land, ensure proper living conditions, assure the adequate provision of light, air and open spaces, and to foster and preserve the nature, character, and quality of existing neighborhoods, while providing property owners opportunities for infill development on vacant lots or redevelopment of lots with existing structures. In particular this district is intended to prevent the further proliferation of structures that do not conform to the general height, bulk, and scale of existing structures.
