Property Description

Welcome to 523 Eklund Ave, a storybook cottage nestled along a peaceful, tree-lined street in one of Geneva's most loved neighborhoods. From the first moment you arrive, this home feels like a warm hug. The meandering paver walkway leads to the inviting front porch. A perfect place for quiet mornings with coffee or watching the seasons pass. Inside, charm and comfort come together with glowing hardwood floors, sunshine streaming through every window, and a layout that flows with ease. The main level offers two bright bedrooms, a welcoming living room ideal for cozy nights in, and a separate dining area perfect for sharing meals and memories. The classic galley-style kitchen includes all appliances and a cheerful window view while you cook. Off the kitchen, step into the freshly painted screened-in sunroom an ideal retreat for afternoon reading or evening chats. From there, head outside to a spacious backyard deck, built for grilling, entertaining, or soaking up the sun. The fully fenced backyard feels like a private park, with professional landscaping, room to garden, and plenty of space for lawn games or nights by the firepit. A cute shed can accommodate all your gardening tools. Downstairs, the finished basement adds another level of comfort and flexibility. It features a large family room with carpeting, perfect for movie nights or hosting friends, a third room/office space, and a second full bathroom-creating the ideal space for guests. A generous laundry room with a sink offers both functionality and storage. This home has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated through the years. New vinyl siding was added in 2016, gutters replaced in 2021, the water heater and furnace were both installed in 2020, and the dishwasher was updated in 2021. The attic was reinsulated in 2022 for added energy efficiency, and the chimney was rebuilt from the roofline up and relined in 2022, ensuring lasting comfort and peace of mind. The home also features central air conditioning, in-unit laundry, a detached one-car garage with opener, and a backyard shed for extra storage. The garage has been updated with a new larger door, with a new driveway. All this and lnew andscaping adds convenience and curb appeal. Other updates include electrical updates along with light switches and outlets. The location is every bit as special as the home itself. Wheeler Park and the Fox River Trail are right at the end of the street-offering an easy way to enjoy the outdoors. Downtown Geneva's charming shops, restaurants, coffee spots, and vibrant community events are close by, as is the Metra station for an easy commute into Chicago. 523 Eklund Ave isn't just a place to live-it's where life happens. It's the laughter on the back deck, the peace of a quiet sunroom evening, the joy of a neighborhood where you feel right at home. If you're searching for a blend of character, comfort, and community, this is the one you've been waiting for.
