Single Family Home/House Glen Ellyn United States

For buyers exhausted by limited inventory in desirable Lake Ellyn, this one’s for you! Four bedrooms together upstairs, more than 3,200 finished square feet, a large fenced yard, and a location just steps from Lake Ellyn and close to downtown Glen Ellyn, Glenbard West High School, and Forest Glen Elementary. Step through the proper foyer and the home’s character immediately comes into view. To the right, the 22-foot front living room is filled with natural light and framed by built-in bookcases, original millwork, and a decorative fireplace before opening into the gorgeous separate dining room. An arched built-in china cabinet and original leaded-glass French doors add even more charm, while also creating the option for a beautiful main-floor office. The expansive main floor continues through an adorable butler’s pantry and dedicated coffee bar into the eat-in kitchen, featuring Thermador and JennAir appliances (2016), generous storage, and a large sink overlooking the backyard. Entertaining continues as you step into the rear family room where French doors lead to the back patio and yard. A full bath, ample closet space, and access to the attached garage complete the main level. Upstairs, you’ll find four bedrooms, a full bath, and a staircase leading to a partially finished third-floor bonus room. Today, the bonus room works perfectly as a kids’ hangout, playroom, reading nook, or office. But the real value lies in what could be done within the home’s existing footprint. Conceptual plans (coming soon) show how removing the attic staircase could make room for a beautiful second full bath directly adjacent to the primary bedroom, creating a true primary ensuite without sacrificing any of the three secondary bedrooms. In Lake Ellyn, where homeowners often have to take on a full home addition to accomplish the same floor-plan goal, that is the goldmine here. The finished basement includes a recreation room, separate laundry room, utility space, and substantial storage. Outside, the professionally landscaped backyard is fully fenced, with a brick paver patio and a generous stretch of usable lawn for outdoor entertaining. Oversized lot: 70 X 149 X 69 X 149. A 1.5-car attached garage and long private driveway provide additional parking. The home was rehabbed in 2017, and the furnace was replaced in 2026. Water heater (2020).
