610 Park Lane Dr, Champaign, IL 61820

The best of both worlds: A spacious and move-in-ready ranch in a fantastic established neighborhood! Almost no surface has been left untouched and all updates have focused on convenience and ease of living. A wall was removed to make this one of the most open floor plans you will see, yet the overall size and solid-core doors mean that privacy is preserved when desired. The entryway, kitchen, laundry room, and bathroom flooring is porcelain tile, laid professionally in a neat hopscotch pattern to minimize long grout lines. The rest of the common areas and office (bedroom 4) offer gleaming red oak hardwood flooring, with carpet only in the bedrooms for comfort. Built-in speakers throughout the common areas enhance the ambiance of your choice. Multiple 3-way [and even a 4-way!] light switches save time and are intuitive. The two-level kitchen island with prep sink facilitates food prep no matter the height of the chef, and guests can gather with plenty of room for everyone to move around. Faucets have pull-out sprayers built in and the kitchen sink is extra deep and constructed of thicker 16-gauge stainless steel. Tons of cabinet and counter space and every drawer in the house is full-extension/slow-close (even in the bathrooms!). The hall bathroom offers a double-sink travertine marble vanity, a huge jetted tub/shower combo, and a super-quiet fan with bonus built-in heater. The primary bathroom has been fully reconfigured with a heated floor, a lovely double-sink Carrara marble top, and a huge shower with a polished river-rock base and frameless glass door. The primary bedroom offers two wide closets and all of the other bedrooms are surprisingly large and each has a ceiling fan. The family room offers a unique half-wall multi-colored brick wood-burning fireplace. The powder room is a special treat with a metallic wall finish and modern fixtures. The laundry room (front-loading washer and dryer stay) has a convenient utility sink and plenty of pantry shelf storage. Ample attic insulation conserves energy and you can open the double-pane windows conventionally or from the top for wonderful cross-breezes! Outside, enjoy the almost fully-fenced backyard with natural privacy via tall hedgerows. Cedar trees and yew bushes flank the front of the house and entryway and provide a year-round pop of color. Hydrangeas bloom all summer in the backyard and next spring will bring peonies and various perennials and wild strawberries. A lush rose bush adorns the front sidewalk with large and fragrant blooms. An 8' x 16' storage shed offers additional space. The extra-large 2-car garage is ready for EV charging with its 100-amp electrical sub-panel with dryer outlet already in place, or for the power tool user in the family! A 72-amp Tesla charger is already installed. The roof was replaced just last year in 2021. Fantastic location with great neighbors and the 100 Yellow bus line just down the street, and within a mile of the Harvest Market shopping area to the North and Savoy Plaza to the South. Various neighborhood paths let you meander towards Burwash Park and its new pickleball/tennis courts, across the low-traffic stretch of Prospect Ave towards Noel Park, and even Morrissey Park is nearby! Such easy proximity to UIUC as well, yet enjoy low property taxes in this outside-the-city-limits pocket known as Windsor Park. Agent is related to the seller. Do not miss this one!
