Timeless Charm Meets Modern Comfort in the Heart of Sycamore Welcome to this beautifully maintained turn-of-the-century home, ideally located just half a block from the Pumpkinfest parade route and a short stroll to downtown Sycamore’s parks, shops, and restaurants. Nestled in a friendly, established neighborhood, this home blends vintage character with tasteful modern updates for comfortable, everyday living. Step through the inviting sunroom—perfect as a cozy reading nook, home office, or stylish mudroom with potential to add a second bathroom—and into the spacious main level. Inside, you’ll find generous living and dining areas with great flow, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. The recently remodeled kitchen is a standout, featuring brand-new cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, updated flooring, and modern lighting and fixtures. Upstairs, you’ll find four spacious bedrooms and a refreshed full bathroom with updated flooring and fresh paint. The unfinished basement offers abundant storage, laundry space, and potential for future finishing. Out back, your private backyard oasis awaits. Set on an oversized, fully fenced lot, the yard features lush perennial gardens, a large deck for entertaining, a charming gazebo with hot tub, and a built-in fire pit for cozy evenings under the stars. A newer garden shed adds convenient outdoor storage, and the oversized 2+ car detached garage includes a built-in workbench—ideal for projects, hobbies, or extra storage. Recent upgrades add comfort and peace of mind, including a brand-new roof (2024), a new water line from the city to the home, a professionally lined wastewater pipe to the street, updated plumbing and a 200-amp electrical panel, and a freshly sealed asphalt driveway. Most windows have also been replaced for improved energy efficiency. This move-in-ready gem offers the perfect blend of historic detail and modern convenience in one of Sycamore’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Come see for yourself—you’ll fall in love!
