This terrific move-in ready 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is situated on a quiet interior corner lot in the ever-popular suburb of Palatine. Upon entering the spacious living area you will be impressed with the abundance of light flowing through the, almost wall to wall, windows. To the immediate left of the living room sits another light filled room highlighted with a warm and inviting wood burning fireplace. This area could easily function as a second living area, a family room, library/study, or perhaps it can work to fill your unique needs. The kitchen is a good example of efficient space utilization. Light and bright it hosts stainless appliances and granite counters. It houses everything a cook needs to create gourmet meals, while keeping the work area nicely hidden from the dining room. A custom, built-in cabinet accentuates the charming dining room, providing an atmosphere for comfortable relaxed dining as well as a place to celebrate special occasions. Three bedrooms and a full bath complete the first floor. Downstairs the full finished basement provides several distinct areas. Having a full bathroom in the basement makes entertaining a breeze. It can easily be used as another living area, recreation or party area. You name it, customize it to fill your needs. The laundry area is a nice functional space set apart to accommodate that task. Also, put your storage needs to rest, there is a large area provided in the unfinished portion of the basement. And if you tend to be handy, there is a workshop area where you can "make things happen". Steps from the backdoor you will find a delightful patio area to enjoy your morning coffee, as well as summertime barbecues. Gardeners please take note of the planting beds that have been built in and fenced off on the north end of the yard. If you are an experienced gardener it's a dream space, if not this could be the year you become one. The privacy fence enhances the yard and provides a great area for relaxing or entertaining. Located in a nice quiet neighborhood close to Marianos, Starbucks, the train, schools, restaurants, downtown Palatine and all it has to offer. Come give us a look!
