Spacious, beautifully updated, and exceptionally versatile-this home truly has it all! Located in highly regarded Plainfield School District 202, this bright and inviting home offers 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, generous living spaces on every level, a full finished basement, and a completely fenced backyard with maintenance-free fencing. Step inside to a functional open floor plan featuring new main-level laminate flooring (2023), recessed can lighting throughout (2023), updated finishes, paneled windows, and six-panel doors.

The full finished basement dramatically expands the living space with a recreation room, game room, theater room currently used as an additional bedroom, full bathroom, wet bar with the potential to create a kitchenette, laundry area, and abundant storage. This flexible layout can easily accommodate an in-law arrangement, guest retreat, entertainment space, or private living area. Major improvements include new heating and cooling systems in 2023, a new roof in 2024 completed prior to the solar-panel installation, and a new garage door and lift mechanism installed in 2019. Additional updates include a Samsung basement dryer (2023) and numerous interior improvements throughout. Step outside to a wonderful backyard fully enclosed with maintenance-free fencing, completed in phases in 2022 and 2025.
