Property Description

Rarely available Arlington Heights brick bungalow with modern yet timeless charm and an UNBEATABLE WALK TO EVERYTHING LOCATION! Feeding into top-rated Westgate Elementary, South Middle, and Rolling Meadows High School. WALK to vibrant downtown Arlington Heights dining, boutique shopping, coffee shops, library, the Metra, and more! Pioneer Park, pool, and tennis courts are steps away. Step inside and immediately feel at home with gorgeous archways that connect the inviting living room to the formal dining room, setting the tone for a home that balances timeless bungalow character with thoughtful, modern updates throughout. The beautifully reimagined kitchen is where it all comes together, including custom inset white cabinetry with Rejuvenation hardware, granite countertops, butler's pantry, and stainless steel appliances including a GE range, French door KitchenAid refrigerator, and panel-front Miele dishwasher. A full 2013 expansion opened the kitchen to a connected great room, creating the open concept layout today's buyers desire. Refinished hardwood floors flow throughout, a first-level full bath adds everyday convenience, and a dedicated first-floor office makes working from home a breeze. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, including a primary suite featuring two closets, and two additional bedrooms that offer walk-in closets. Flexible third room works beautifully as an office, playroom, or reading nook. A well-appointed full bath completes this level. The nearly 1500 sq. ft. unfinished basement is a blank canvas ready for your vision, already complete with laundry, a workshop, and abundant storage solutions. A 2-car detached garage rounds out the package. NEW roof (2024), NEW vinyl siding (2025), NEW gutters (2021), fully insulated exterior walls (2013), and a high-efficiency zoned AC/heating system mean the big items are done and done right. The updates are done, the appeal is undeniable, and the location is simply unmatched. This is the lifestyle everyone is after! Welcome home!
