Charmantes Cape Cod In Fern Hill

This charming brick and limestone home lives like a traditional two-story, with three generously sized bedrooms on the upper level. While the classic architectural features have been tastefully preserved, there are a number of updates providing modern-day comforts without sacrificing any original charm. A newly updated kitchen features all-new premium stainless steel appliances, honed granite countertops, a tasteful backsplash, and newly laid black-and-white tile flooring. Original retro St. Charles metal cabinetry has been preserved, providing classic character and tons of vintage storage solutions and functionality. Refinished oak flooring, coved ceilings, built-ins, alcoves, and two wood-burning fireplaces are complemented by the original multi-paneled windows, which allow abundant natural light from both the south and east. The sizable living room flows into a sun-drenched dining room. The three-season porch features multiple arched doors and screens leading out to the deck and private side yard. As a bonus, the home features walk-in closets in each bedroom, an original primary en suite, and an attached garage! The finished lower-level family room has a built-in dry bar, a cold storage room for wine or vegetables, plus a spacious laundry and utility room with a new furnace, AC, and water heater. Premium landscaping with stone edging has just been installed! Nestled in the highly desirable Fern Hill neighborhood, just blocks from Cedar Lake, this is the definition of character without compromise, all in an incredibly convenient location.
