It's not easy for this owner to leave her wonderful home of 59 years! You can tell this home has been truly loved. Every corner seems to hold a story, meticulously maintained over the years w/pride in ownership evident from the lovely curb appeal to the big-ticket items including roof, gutters, downspouts, ALL windows, appliances, furnace & A/C replaced over the last 10-15 years. Lots of natural light throughout & a large bay window anchors the main living area. Eat-in kitchen plenty big enough for decent-size table & chairs, bedrooms all have good closet space, two full bathrooms, lower level family room has slider leading to cement patio & wide, open yard w/shed. Such great family memories were had in the sub-level, finished basement (think holiday lights hanging from the bar) which can double as a 2nd family room w/plenty of storage spaces. Walk to elementary, middle, high school & parks from this prime location in Arlington Heights. Needs some cosmetic updates but very clean & can move right in. Attached, 2-car garage, plantation shutters & blinds. Come see for yourself why this home is so special--it's ready for its next chapter. (Virtual tour has 3D views of home.)
