What's special
This charming Modified Dutch Colonial sits on a quiet historical street in McClure's Linden Addition, close to Elgin's downtown, cultural district, Metra/bus stations, and expressways. The listed square footage does not include a great finished part of the basement, so the living space is actually bigger! Brand new furnace and central air system just installed before the property hit the market. The value of all upgrades is incredible and works in harmony with the cozy historical atmosphere that captivates as you enter the house. Enchanting mood of the back yard invites to relaxation. Both front and back porch entrances have composite decking; screened porch has original hardwood floor; Pennsylvania bluestone patio and sidewalk. All layers of roof were replaced by the caring owners. Hardwood floors throughout the house. Living room features built-in shelves. Updated kitchen has cherry cabinets with crown molding, soapstone counters and new refrigerator; walk-in closets in bedrooms; main bath (2019 upgrade) features a walk-in shower. Exterior newly painted (2023); fenced-in yard (replaced in 2023) and all-new HVAC system (2024). High-efficiency washer and dryer in basement. Window treatments included as well as bookshelves in 3rd bedroom. Basement has extensive shelving/storage space and wood-burning stove; exterior access. Two-car garage with concrete floor. Rain barrels, teak picnic table with umbrella and various yard/garden tools are included as well as the following equipment: refrigerator and dehumidifier in the basement, power washer, lawn mower, Weber grill. The fireplace in the basement was seldom used and well maintained.
