Presenting this distinguished Mid-Century Ranch, located on a meticulously landscaped, wooded lot in a premier Wheaton setting. Situated on one-third of an acre with 150 feet of frontage amid mature oaks, the property features refined outdoor illumination that enhances its evening ambiance. Positioned just 1.5 miles from downtown Wheaton, this residence offers convenient access to the Metra station, upscale dining, shopping, scenic parks, reputable schools, the prairie path, and more. The home has undergone numerous high-quality upgrades, including a newly installed high-efficiency furnace, air conditioning system, and hot water heater (2025). The air conditioning unit has been strategically relocated to ensure quieter patio enjoyment (2025). Interior enhancements comprise professional painting throughout, installation of premium lighting fixtures, updated electrical panel with new outlets and dimmers, and a fully renovated garage with new drywall, recessed lighting, and epoxy flooring-all completed in 2025. The attic now benefits from freshly blown insulation, additional soffit vents, and an attic fan for optimal ventilation. Further improvements include a new front door (2026), upgraded fireplace with gas line, liner, and gas logs (2025), painted hearth (2025), and high-end flooring throughout the home (2025). Kitchen updates feature an upgraded backsplash and recessed lighting (2025), while two glass shower doors have been added (2025). The dining room has been refinished and drywalled (2025), and a new mudroom closet with modern doors was completed in 2026. The family room showcases a new Marvin picture window (2026) framing the landscaped backyard; two Kohler toilets (2026) and a gas line for the new LG stove gas range (2026) further elevate functionality. Exterior renovations include a roof (2020), fenced yard (2023), and new concrete driveway, walkway, and patio (2023). An open concept living area provides panoramic views of the expansive yard, enhanced by comprehensive lighting and a carefully considered layout conducive to both entertaining and relaxation. By evening, the landscape serves as a private arboretum, creating an inviting atmosphere. This ranch harmoniously combines mid-century character with modern amenities in an exceptional Wheaton location. Properties of this caliber and setting are rare; prospective buyers are encouraged to schedule a viewing to appreciate the unique value offered.
