Impeccably maintained 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home nestled in the highly desirable Covington Cove subdivision of Carol Stream, backing to a protected wetland pond fed by the Klein Creek watershed. Serene water views, abundant wildlife, and permanent natural privacy that simply cannot be replicated are yours from the moment you step outside. The Village of Carol Stream actively preserves this open space, so the tranquility is here to stay. Cherished by the same family for nearly 30 years, the pride of ownership is evident in every detail. The open, flowing layout is ideal for everyday living and large-scale entertaining alike. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated over the years. Cabinetry throughout the kitchen, dry bar area, and storage near the family room were all replaced in 2023, along with a new Bosch dishwasher. Backsplash and countertops were updated in 2015. All other kitchen appliances replaced in 2018. Primary bath remodeled (2017). Second-floor hall bath refreshed with newly painted walls and cabinets (2026). Basement painted and recarpeted (2023). Six Andersen windows replaced (2025). Nothing has been left for the next owner to figure out. Mechanicals are solid and well-documented: furnace and central air conditioning (2015, maintained under service agreements), 50-gallon A.O. Smith water heater (2019), whole-home Aprilaire humidifier, sump pump, and gas fireplace. Roof and front siding replaced (2003). LG washer and dryer (2018) included. The backyard is an entertainer's dream. A replaced deck (2018), brick paver patio with built-in fire pit (2016), Marygrove retractable awning with side screen installed (2021), and split-rail fencing all frame that breathtaking wetland backdrop for an outdoor living experience that is rare. The lifestyle here extends well beyond the property line. Families are served by Elementary and Junior High District 93 and High School District 87, including the highly regarded Glenbard North. Coral Cove Water Park is just minutes away, featuring waterslides, a diving well, walk-in pool, splash playground, and cafe. The Carol Stream Park District maintains 38 public parks, a mini golf course, and over 23 miles of connected trails, including access to the Great Western Trail spanning 61 miles of hiking, biking, and nature paths. Shopping, dining, and Interstate 355 are all within easy reach. This home has gathered families, celebrated milestones, and stood the test of time. Turnkey, timeless, and ready for its next chapter.
