This stunning home, originally built by McKenna Builders and transformed in 2025 by the renowned Island Construction, offers over 5,000 square feet of luxury and practicality. Located in Elmhurst, within the awardwinning Elmhurst School District 205 and just a short walk to Butterfield Park, this property is designed for today's lifestyle. The extensive 2025 remodel includes an extensive interior refresh with updated paint throughout the walls, ceilings, closets, trim, and doors. New carpeting has been installed throughout the entire house. Hardwood floors and the staircase have been meticulously refinished and stained, enhancing the home's elegance. The kitchen, butler pantry, and bathrooms feature new countertops, and sinks. Cabinetry throughout the home has been repainted, complemented by new mirrors in the primary and second-floor hall baths, and newly painted exterior trim. Additionally, the garage floor has been finished with durable epoxy, adding a sleek and functional touch. At the heart of the home is a spacious kitchen with a butler's pantry, a large island with seating for four to five, and a bright breakfast area. Upstairs, discover five generous bedrooms, a versatile loft space, and custom millwork throughout. Uncommon for the area, the home also boasts a sunlit four-season room addition for year-round enjoyment. The finished basement adds significant living space with an expansive rec area, a full bathroom, a flexible multi-purpose room, and ample storage. Outdoors, enjoy a 165-foot-deep partially fenced yard and a beautifully designed paver brick patio. Don't miss the opportunity to tour this extraordinary property!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
