RARE 2-STORY ATTACHED BRICK DUPLEX WITH NO HOA, PRIVATE 3-CAR PARKING & APPROX. 700 SQ FT OF ADDITIONAL BASEMENT SPACE! This beautifully updated Des Plaines residence presents a layout rarely found among typical area split-level homes, with solid brick construction, two full levels of living space, a private front parking pad for up to 3 cars, and a large fenced yard-all with no HOA fees Freshly painted throughout and enhanced with brand-new lighting and new LVP flooring, the bright main level features gleaming hardwood floors in the great room and formal dining room, flowing naturally into the spacious kitchen. The kitchen has long granite countertops, tall custom maple cabinetry, dual pantries, newer stainless-steel appliances, and a large eat-in dining area. The updated half bath features a new vanity, glass-bowl sink and modern waterfall-style faucet. Upstairs are 3 comfortable bedrooms, including 2 generously sized bedroom, plus a beautifully updated full bath. The entire second floor has been freshly painted and features brand-new LVP flooring. And then there is the approximately 700 sq. ft. basement-additional space not included in the home's primary living-area calculation. A portion is already partially finished with new flooring, fresh paint, washer and dryer, and a laundry sink. The large workshop area provides abundant additional space for tools, hobbies, storage, recreation or future finishing. With its generous ceiling height and existing utilities, the basement has exciting potential to create additional finished living and recreation space, including the possibility of a multigenerational living area, subject to buyer verification of applicable requirements. Outside, the large fully fenced side and backyard provides plenty of room for gardening, play and entertaining, complemented by a concrete patio. Additional features include a sump pump with battery backup and partially updated electrical wiring and panel. Conveniently located near expressways, O'Hare International Airport, shopping and dining, this move-in-ready home combines the space and functionality today's buyers are looking for with features that are increasingly difficult to find: brick construction, a true 2-story layout, no HOA fees, private 3-car parking, a large fenced yard and substantial basement potential.
