A rare opportunity to live surrounded by nature! Tucked away on a wooded cul-de-sac and backing to the forest preserve, this exceptional 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers an unmatched combination of privacy, space, and natural beauty. Out back, down the hill runs a river through the forest preserve, with towering trees and open meadows creating a truly unforgettable backdrop. Inside, the home has been extensively updated. The remodeled kitchen features custom maple cabinetry with pull-outs, Corian countertops, and newer appliances, while the beautifully renovated baths offer maple vanities and quartz countertops. Acacia engineered hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, where you'll also find a grand curved staircase, first-floor office, and inviting family room with a gas start, woodburning fireplace. The improvements continue outside with a recent tear-off roof, LP SmartSide siding and trim, gutters, fascia, soffits, replacement windows, concrete driveway, new Western red cedar fencing, two storage sheds and French drains around the home. The finished garage includes insulation, drywall, and a heater. Step outside to the paver patio surrounded by perennial gardens and take in the peaceful forest preserve views. A true nature oasis on one of the most unique lots in the area-all within District 200 Wheaton/Warrenville schools.
