1131 Blanchard Street

Custom-built in 1963, lovingly maintained by its original owner, this special 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers over 3,200 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. Ahead of its time when built, it features zoned HVAC, copper piping, a whole-house fan, and unique architectural details throughout. The expansive floor plan includes generous sized rooms, natural sunlight, retro charm, and a Lower Level with above-grade windows, fireplace, full bath, and walk-out access-perfect for entertaining or extended living. A covered screened porch, a backyard with mature trees, with forever-protected views offer comfort, privacy, and peaceful oasis. Recent updates include new HVAC systems, 200-amp electrical service, water heater, Permaseal waterproofing, chimney cap, and tuckpointing. Ideally located near vibrant downtown Downers Grove, get the summer vibe going with the weekly free concerts at Fishel Park Bandshell and Farmer's Market, enjoy the Metra Train Station ease, top-rated schools, Avery Coonley School, and Maple Grove Forest with parks, ballfields, walking paths. An extraordinary opportunity to own a timeless home in a wonderful location-don't miss it!
