About this home
A true gem in North Downers Grove, welcome to 908 40th Street. Nestled on a quiet dead-end street and surrounded by mature trees, this beautifully landscaped property offers both privacy and charm on a spacious lot with an attached garage. This updated raised ranch features inviting, light-filled living spaces and an open floor plan. The bright, white kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with granite countertops, a large peninsula with seating, pull-out shelving, and sleek, no-smudge stainless steel appliances. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining area and living room, highlighted by a large picture window that fills the space with natural light. An exceptional main-level addition offers a cozy den with a gas fireplace, skylight, built-in cabinetry, floating shelving, and expansive Pella windows overlooking the picturesque backyard. This level also includes a dedicated office and a versatile bonus space-ideal for a reading nook, mudroom, or drop zone. Three bedrooms with closet organizers and a beautifully updated full bathroom featuring slate tile, a glass-enclosed shower, and a rainhead fixture complete the main level. The lower level expands your living space with durable, wood-look ceramic tile flooring, a spacious family room and recreation area, and large windows that continue to bring in natural light. You'll also find a full bathroom with a tub, laundry room, storage closet, and direct access to the attached 1.5-car garage. Step outside to your private backyard retreat with shed. The expansive patio is perfect for entertaining and outdoor dining. Enjoy peaceful mornings and evenings surrounded by vibrant gardens that attract birds, butterflies, and bees throughout the seasons. Ideally located close to shopping, dining, expressways, and hospitals, and within the highly sought-after Downers Grove North High School district, this home offers the perfect blend of convenience and tranquility.
