About this home

Residing in one of Elmhurst's most sought-after neighborhoods, Cherry Farm, this exceptional home offers 5,362 square feet of total living space (3,807 above grade plus a 1,555 sq ft finished basement) on an incredible 200-foot-deep lot. A covered front entrance welcomes you into a dramatic two-story foyer highlighted by a graceful curved staircase. The main level is thoughtfully designed for both entertaining and everyday living, featuring a stylish front cocktail room, formal dining room, and an expansive kitchen with a large island offering seating for five on two sides. The kitchen is fully applianced with maple cabinetry in a rich russet stain and opens to a bright breakfast room and an inviting family room with a classic brick wood-burning fireplace. A vaulted, all-season sunroom surrounded by windows provides year-round enjoyment and serene views of the backyard. A first-floor powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features his-and-hers closets and a spa-inspired bath. Five generous second-floor bedrooms plus a dedicated playroom offer incredible flexibility for family living. The home offers 4.1 bathrooms in total. The finished basement expands your lifestyle options with a full bath, game room, recreation room with theater area, and oversized storage space that could easily convert to a home gym. Outdoor living shines with a large deck with retractable awning overlooking a park-like backyard complete with mature landscaping, garden beds, firepit, and a charming kids' shed. The 3-car garage features three separate overhead doors. Location is unbeatable: just half a block to Washington Park with playground, basketball courts, and baseball diamonds. Edison Elementary and Sandburg Middle School are a block away with a crossing guard on duty. Only a one-mile walk to the heart of Elmhurst's vibrant Uptown district. Love Elmhurst. Love Local.
