Welcome to this solid ranch home located on a generous lot in a sought-after Normal subdivision with a neighborhood pond and wide, tree-lined streets. From the twilight curb appeal - mature trees, lush lawn, brick and vinyl exterior, and a bold blue front door - to the spacious covered front porch, this one has great bones and even better potential. Step through the front door and you'll immediately feel how well this floor plan flows. A gracious foyer opens through an elegant arched doorway into the main living areas, all tied together with hardwood floors throughout. The great room is where you'll want to spend your evenings - vaulted ceilings, a ceiling fan, a gas fireplace with a handsome oak surround and tile hearth, and sliding glass doors that spill right out to the backyard patio. The kitchen is ready to work hard for you - raised-panel oak cabinetry, tile backsplash with a mosaic accent band, recessed lighting, a gas range, built-in microwave, and a breakfast bar that makes morning coffee feel effortless. A separate dining nook sits just off the kitchen, and a flex dining space at the front of the home gives you room to make it your own. The primary suite is a true retreat - a large walk-in closet loaded with built-in wire shelving and a private en-suite bath with a jetted soaking tub, separate glass-enclosed tile shower, and dual-sink vanity. Two additional main-level bedrooms are well-sized with ceiling fans and plenty of natural light. The main level rounds out with two full bathrooms and a dedicated laundry room with utility sink, upper cabinetry, and hookups ready to go. The full basement is one of the best features of this home - a massive blank canvas just waiting for your vision. Already framed with a full bathroom and a bonus room, plus an egress window well, the bones are here to finish it out and add serious value. Out back, the partially fenced yard offers a concrete patio off the great room, manicured lawn, and mature shade trees. The attached two-car garage rounds it out with room for vehicles, storage, and whatever else life requires.
