From the moment you enter, you're welcomed by a charming front porch and sun-drenched interiors that were beautifully remodeled by the current owners. The main level features a spacious living room, formal dining area ideal for hosting, and a large updated kitchen with high-end stainless steel appliances including a Wolf range, white cabinetry, and abundant counter space. A cozy sunroom provides the perfect spot for morning coffee or quiet reading. A full bath featuring Kohler fixtures and a steam shower plus an optional third bedroom/office space make this home flexible for many different stages of life. Up the stairs you'll find two generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space and another updated HGTV-worthy full bath. Both full bathrooms have been recently remodeled with contemporary fixtures and finishes. This home has been extensively renovated for peace of mind and efficiency, including a new roof, gutters, siding, windows, maple wood flooring throughout and all new electrical including an EV charger in the garage. Two new HVAC systems, spray foam insulation, an expanded staircase and new paint throughout. Step outside to enjoy the beautifully landscaped yard, offering plenty of space for outdoor entertaining, gardening and relaxing. You will love the convenience of living just steps from Palatine's vibrant downtown - walk to the local elementary school, Metra station, restaurants and cafes and watch the 4th of July fireworks from your backyard.
