Welcome home to this charming and well-maintained classic bungalow in the desirable Aurora University neighborhood. The home's character is highlighted by its hardwood flooring and the inviting large front porch, perfect for enjoying the tree-lined street. Inside, you'll find three bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms. The eat-in kitchen has been updated, and the convenience of first-floor laundry is a great feature. The home is equipped for comfort and efficiency with a brand new furnace and central air. Outside, you can enjoy the outdoors on the back deck and in the fenced yard, which provides privacy and space for activities. A standout feature is the oversized two-car garage, offering ample storage and parking. It's excellent location near the tollway, shopping, and downtown Aurora restaurants adds to its appeal.
