Property Description

Rarely Available Vintage Wheaton Bungalow - Charm, Updates & Location! This beautifully maintained 3+1 bedroom, 2-bath vintage bungalow blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates-all just steps from the heart of Wheaton. If you're looking for charm, space, and convenience, you've found it! The updated kitchen (2012) features oak cabinetry, granite countertops, commercial-grade vinyl flooring, skylights, and brand-new stainless steel appliances (2024). The entire home was freshly painted in 2021, and most windows and plumbing have been replaced for added peace of mind. Enjoy cozy evenings in the inviting living room with a wood-burning fireplace. Both bathrooms have been recently updated, and the finished basement now includes a new bedroom and bath (2025), along with a workshop area, workbench, crawl space, and abundant storage. Major mechanical updates include a new furnace and A/C (July 2024) and tankless hot water heater (2025). Additional improvements include drain tiles (2025), and a sump pump with battery backup. The roof on both the house and garage is approximately 15 years old (tear-off). Outdoor living shines with French doors leading to a 15 x 15 deck (built with double-supported rafters-hot tub ready!), plus a beautifully maintained yard featuring a brick patio, fire pit, garden area, full mulch, and a 6-foot wood privacy fence. A side drive leads to a spacious 2.5-car garage. Located just six homes from Main Street and minutes to downtown Wheaton, Wheaton College, the Illinois Prairie Path, and the Metra-this home offers unbeatable access to everything the area has to offer. Very near schools! Character, updates, and an incredible location-this one is not to be missed!
