This one-of-a-kind Ivy Hill home was originally a model for the neighborhood and is larger than similar floorplans. The amazing kitchen space will be the heart of your home-with ease of flow and functionality plus valuable cabinet space, endless countertops, a 2nd sink, and stainless appliances providing you with opportunity for uncluttered living, multiple prep and serving areas, a coffee or beverage station, and ease of gathering with friends or family. Large windows provide lovely yard views and natural light across the entire room. The breakfast nook is the perfect spot to enjoy morning coffee or mealtime. A few steps away you'll find the generously sized Family Room with a corner fireplace and easy access to the patio making it easy to extend your living outside. This level has a large half bath and a storage closet perfect for games or backyard gear. We like the idea of adding a desk near the stair wall for a homework or hobby zone. Spend time in the living room quietly reading, watching neighborhood activity, or gathering with friends for drinks or game night. The entire home is built for a lifetime of memories. Upstairs you'll find a primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and private bath plus 3 additional good-sized bedrooms and a hall bathroom with a jetted tub/shower combination. There are hardwood floors under the carpeting in bedroom 3. Other interior upgrades include recessed lighting, new oak hardwood floors in the living room and stairs to 2nd level, and replacement of all doors & windows. The sub-basement provides another level of living space perfect for a playroom, exercise, entertainment area, or private office. Outside relax or entertain on the large patio overlooking the grassy yard. Mechanical updates: Furnace and A/C (2021), new chimney liner 2016. The home is approximately 2 blocks to top rated Ivy Hill elementary school, close to Camelot park, pool, and playground, and a few blocks to Lake Arlington recreation area. Close to abundant shops, restaurants, & conveniences, & a short drive to popular downtown Arlington Heights. A trifecta of award-winning schools-Ivy Hill Elementary, Thomas Middle School, and Buffalo Grove High School is icing on the cake!
