Welcome to this move-in ready cape cod in the heart of Wheaton! This sweet home is situated on a picturesque street, conveniently located close to the train station and cushioned in an enviable spot between downtown Wheaton and downtown Glen Ellyn. The expansive property features mature trees, a large backyard, and a spacious setback from the street. Timeless features such as hardwood floors, an arched doorway, and trim work are enhanced by modern decor. The charm of the 1950s architecture blends with contemporary accents such as updated light fixtures and modern paint colors. The recently renovated kitchen is enhanced by stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and awash in natural light. A formal dining room features French doors and a stunning light fixture. The hardwood floors continue on the second floor, where there is ample closet space in both the bedrooms and the upstairs hallway. A full bathroom and an additional bedroom is located on the main floor. The fully finished basement offers a spacious family room area, large laundry room with a private nook for a home office, and a full bath. The detached garage offers room for two cars and is flanked by a patio and fire pit area. The backyard includes both the practicality of a large shed for storage and the whimsy of a treehouse. This cozy home boasts the award-winning Longfellow, Franklin and Wheaton North schools and is a walk away from the train station, Wheaton College, and the prairie path.
Wheaton College, located between Downtown Wheaton and the Illinois Prairie Path, is a collegiate and residential Wheaton neighborhood with leafy quads and brick academic halls. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the intersection of College Avenue and Washington Street, where campus foot traffic meets coffee counters, small eateries, and storefront windows. Edman Memorial Chapel anchors the skyline, while the Wheaton College Billy Graham Center Museum and the Armerding Center for Music and the Arts set a steady cultural cadence. Side streets feature early-20th-century houses, mature trees, and walkable blocks. The Prairie Path and nearby parks shape a bike-and-stroll routine. Metra service at Wheaton Station ties the area to the wider region.
