This meticulously updated home combines timeless charm with extensive modern upgrades across every level. In 2024, the kitchen was completely overhauled with custom cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, a deep sink, and a charming custom cookbook shelf. Enjoy thoughtful storage solutions with built-in drawer organizers, plus new flooring, trim, fixtures, USB-C outlets, and wireless under-cabinet lighting. Stainless steel refrigerator (2023), dishwasher (2024), and microwave (2024) complete this modern culinary space. The luxurious primary bathroom (2024) features a new tub, toilet, vanity, unique tile flooring, black Moen fixtures, a custom-tiled shower niche, and an exhaust fan with roof vent. The updated half-bath (2025) includes all-new plumbing, vanity, lighting, walls, and fixtures. Major mechanical upgrades include a new furnace and fan (2022), AC condenser (2025), cured-in-place sewer liner from stack to street, above-grade plumbing stack replacement, and full ductwork cleaning (2024). Air vent covers have been updated throughout. Fresh paint throughout (2024-2025), including ceilings, trim, doors, built-ins, and pantry shelves. The living room plaster ceiling was replaced with drywall. Outdoor improvements include a brand-new front walkway (2025), custom rockwork planter borders, $3,000+ in perennial landscaping, and certified arborist tree trimming and removal. Enjoy upgraded lighting with all-new LED fixtures, updated switches, cordless 2" blinds, curtain rods, and custom curtains. The stairway was enhanced with new railings, newel posts, and carpet treads. Added shelving in multiple closets, updated front entry window and exterior lighting, replaced front door threshold/weatherstripping, and stylish black hardware add vintage charm throughout. Additional highlights: attic is insulated and fully floored for ample storage; laundry chute and mail slot add character and function; 1-car detached garage with opener plus 3 off-street tandem spaces; fenced yard with mature trees and privacy fence; original hardwood floors; dehumidifier (2023), Samsung washer/dryer (2021), and fiber internet-ready. Previous owners report a new roof in 2017 and crawl space seal in 2018. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street near schools, downtown Urbana, Lincoln Square farmer's market, restaurants, and shops-this one truly checks all the boxes!
