Winner of the 2019 Palatine Hometown Pride Award, this delightful Cape Cod is full of character, comfort, and thoughtful updates throughout. Original details like glass knob doors, hardwood floors and built-ins add to the home's classic appeal. The home greets you with perennial gardens and a brick paver walkway leading you to the front door. The inviting living room is filled with natural light and opens seamlessly to the updated kitchen (new oven in 2024), perfect for everyday living and entertaining. Two bedrooms and a beautifully remodeled full bath complete the main level, along with a four-season sunroom added in 2022 that overlooks the newly fenced backyard (2021). Upstairs, the spacious master suite offers a private retreat with its own updated bathroom and two closets. The partially finished, full basement extends your living space with recreation area, laundry, and ample storage. Notable improvements include a new roof (2015), remodeled bathrooms and newer Andersen 400 Series windows (wood interior, vinyl-clad exterior) in the main living area. The home also features updated copper plumbing, a new drain tile system in the basement (2017) and a new furnace (2022). You'll love the new backyard patio (2024), epoxy floors in both the basement and garage (2023), and the new basement windows (2023). Outside, enjoy the perennial gardens and new hardscape plus a garden bed behind the garage, ready for your spring vegetables. It's a wonderful location near restaurants, shopping, entertainment, and the Metra. This home truly blends small-town charm with modern living.
