If you're looking for space (inside AND out), you found the one! This gorgeous home in Fairway Estates of Wheaton is set on a rare, nearly half-acre lot, offering an incredible amount of outdoor space for entertaining, recreation, and relaxation. Inside, this 4-bedroom, 3 full-bath home was tastefully renovated in 2014 to meet the demands of today's buyer and then additionally updated in 2022 with completely renovated primary and 2nd baths, new paint and new light fixtures. The main level features beautiful hardwood floors and an extraordinary updated kitchen with eat-in breakfast area and high-end appliances. All closets throughout have been professionally designed. The lower level offers an abundance of versatile living space, featuring a spacious recreation room with engineered hardwood flooring, a second fireplace, updated full bath, and a spacious laundry room complete with countertops, cabinetry, and exceptional storage. The oversized fourth bedroom-currently used as a home office-boasts a large walk-in closet and its own split heating and air-conditioning system with a programmable controller. The home is thoughtfully designed with three heating zones and three Nest thermostats, powered by two boilers, while the basement enjoys its own dedicated boiler and thermostat. A high-velocity AC system services the main level of the home. The expansive yard provides endless possibilities, host summer gatherings, create a garden oasis, add play areas, or simply enjoy the privacy and open space rarely found this close to town. Ideally located close to Whittier Elementary, Edison Middle School, Kelly Park, and downtown Wheaton with easy access to restaurants, shopping and the Metra Train Station. Truly move in ready - don't miss it!!
