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!
