About this home
Premier location that backs up to Hummer Park & 2 blocks from the Metra Fairview station. Brick 2 bedroom, 2 bath (possible 3rd bedroom in basement) is as cute as a button set on an oversized 60x196 foot lot. The home is perfect for living in, expanding with an addition or for building a dream home smack dab in the center of Downers Grove. Well built home greets you upon pulling up to the driveway. Lush landscaping offers some privacy and leaves you on your own island. Massive window in the formal living room allows rays of sunshine inside to brighten your day. Reset yourself to the word vintage with the retro kitchen. 32" original solid oak cabinets along with a separate eating area detail the kitchen. Both bedrooms are carpeting, have lighting and good sized closets. The first floor bath exudes the home's charm with a cast iron tub/newer vinyl surround. The basement is framed out and partially finished perfect for a family room, laundry room, full bathroom and possible 3rd bedroom. Enclosed porch is located right off the kitchen and is perfect for morning coffee or a wine or scotch after a long day at work. Additional patio off the rear of the home allows you to enjoy nature at it's finest with all sorts of birds that come to visit including doves, cardinals and blue jays. Roof replaced in 2016, AC in 2007. Newer high efficiency furnace. The basement has a sump pump with battery backup. 1 car attached garage also has additional storage area....
