There is so much to love about this inviting 3-bed, 2-bath ranch home in Wheaton’s sought-after Hawthorne district! At the heart of the home, the gorgeous living room makes a lasting first impression with hardwood floors, crown molding, and a striking fireplace flanked by built-in bookshelves. The living room flows seamlessly into the adjoining dining room, where a beautiful window overlooks the backyard and creates a wonderful setting for everyday meals and entertaining. The kitchen offers granite countertops, a newer dishwasher (2025) and refrigerator (2021), plus a charming eat-in breakfast nook overlooking the backyard through a Pella sliding glass door (2022). A convenient command center desk adds everyday functionality, while the adjoining mudroom features custom built-in shelving and a bench to keep everything organized as you come in from the attached garage. Three nicely sized bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the main level, with hardwood floors extending throughout. Downstairs, discover even more room to spread out in the spacious family room, perfect for movie nights, game days, or simply relaxing. A versatile bonus room offers flexibility for a home office, hobby space, or additional sleeping area (note: no egress window in this room). The rest of the basement also includes a second full bathroom, laundry area, abundant storage, and a newly added egress window (2026). Outside, enjoy the spacious patio and fully fenced backyard, ideal for outdoor dining, play, and entertaining. A convenient garage door provides direct backyard access. EV-ready electrical infrastructure with a 200-amp service panel offers the potential for a future EV charger. Charging equipment is not included. And then there’s the location!
