We're moving! Again... We've decided that we have a very unique opportunity to have both parents home for Michael while he's growing up since I do most of my work from home, so Julie has decided that she won't go back to teaching in the Fall. But in order to do this we'll have to move. So we've been working very hard on the house the last few months getting all our little projects finished up and now the house is finally up for sale. Here's the description:
DeKalb, Illinois Homes For Sale - 1221 Ivy Street - Knolls at Prairie Creek - Single Family, Two Story, 4 Bedroom, 2.5 Bath, Large Lot
This is the Premier home in DeKalb’s prestigious Knolls neighborhood. This striking 2 story home has 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths on one of the largest lots in the family friendly subdivision. This showcase home sits on a tree lined lot facing the 10 acre Mason Park and Larson Lake. Nearby is Prairie Park and the DeKalb/Sycamore Trail bike/walking path. This well loved, well maintained home features many custom details. The large eat-in kitchen has granite countertops, extensively detailed cabinets, premium satin-nickel hardware and fixtures, and a filtered instant hot water dispenser, all installed in 2005. The vast living room includes a stunning brick wood burning fireplace, 10’ ceilings, designer ceiling fan, and expansive windows. There is also a formal dining room currently used as a music room/library, wood floors throughout the main floor (except the carpeted living room), an oversized two car garage with 12’ ceilings, and a spacious unfinished basement. The master bedroom features a tray ceiling, beautiful ceiling fan, master bath with whirlpool tub, separate shower, and walk-in closet. The upstairs contains new wood flooring in three bedrooms. All bedrooms, the kitchen and living room have ceiling fans to complement the central air, high efficiency furnace and Pella windows . The cozy, homey atmosphere is enhanced by the wood blinds, cellular blinds, and custom made window treatments throughout. The entire house is freshly painted inside and out. Outside you will find over 40 trees, numerous perennial plants, nearly 700 square feet of deck with accent lighting, a gazebo with ceiling fan, a beautiful lawn, and a small fenced-in area adjacent to the garage. Close to I-88, NIU and local shopping, this stylish house must be seen to be appreciated.
I've also registered a domain name that I'll be building a web site on in order to market the house. Hopefully it'll sell without needing the page, but every last bit helps. So visit http://www.dekalbillinoishomesforsale.com/ today! Read More...
