In-Person: 11/08 12:00 PM - 2:00 PMClassic Tudor character meets thoughtfully updated living in Lindenwald Estates, set down a private drive shared with two other homes. The setting is remarkably private, and there is no HOA. A generous foyer, updated hardwood flooring (2024) and 4 fireplaces create a warm welcome. The kitchen remodel (2024) brings an open layout, white cabinetry, quartzite and quartz countertops, and new stainless steel appliances. A large island with seating, Bosch double wall ovens, 2 Bosch dishwashers and a microwave drawer make everyday cooking and entertaining easy, with a scullery and spacious pantry providing additional preparation and storage space. Gather in the main floor family room with built in shelving and a wood burning fireplace and host dinner beside the dining room fireplace. A sunroom with skylights adds another inviting place to unwind. A full bathroom and half bathroom serve the main floor. Upstairs, 4 bedrooms include a primary bedroom with a fireplace and two-story cedar closet, complemented by 3 full bathrooms and second floor laundry with a Samsung washer and dryer (2024). The basement remodel (2024) added a fifth bedroom and refreshed recreation space, with an abundance of storage available. Additional updates include a second electrical panel (2024) and interior painting (2024) plus recent touchups. The second panel provides 200 amp service, and the mechanicals have been cared for as well, with a Trane furnace (2020), three sump pumps (2023), new gutters, fascia and soffits (2023) and two 50 gallon Bradford White water heaters. Outside, a rear deck, 2 patio sitting areas, stone walkway, established plantings and pear trees create a welcoming setting for outdoor enjoyment. Driveways were redone (2025). The private drive is maintained by the parcel owner and plowed currently by Avery Coonley, so the privacy comes without the upkeep. The grounds span just under half an acre (20,135 square feet) and run all the way back to the creek, with the creek and canal repaired in June 2025. The oversized brick paver drive leaves room for a future third car garage or carport, and the shed offers storage today or, with a little vision, a future studio or workshop. Both patios are finished in brick paver and bluestone, and the rear stone walkway was added in October 2025. An attached 2 car garage with an electric vehicle hookup, Generac whole house generator and 2 Carrier air conditioning systems (2024) add practical benefits. Enjoy a location within walking distance of Hillcrest Elementary and downtown Downers Grove's restaurants, shops and Main Street Metra station, with Avery Coonley School, Maple Grove Forest Preserve's wooded trails and Gilbert Park nearby.
