Lots to love in this 3 bed, 2 bath Palatine ranch blending comfort and convenience with Oak Park right across the street. You actually have a front porch to enjoy the landscape. Gather in the family room featuring a large picture window bringing in plenty of natural light. Large living / dining area leading to a sliding glass door overlooking the spacious, fenced backyard complete with a newer concrete patio. A stainless stove, microwave and refrigerator make preparing meals easy while rows of wood cabinetry and ample counter space keep you organized. There's even a large window over the kitchen sink so you can see all that's happening in your backyard. All three bedrooms feature hardwood flooring including the primary suite complete with double closets and a private bath. A laundry room with a newer front-loading washer and dryer adds the finishing touch. The attached garage features plenty of room for one car AND a 15x12 concrete pad perfect for storage, work / tool area, a tandem parking space or finish for additional living space. New roof (2020), new hot water heater (2021), replaced windows - - this is a solid home. Great location across the street from Oak Park and minutes from downtown Palatine, Mariano's and Rt. 53!
