Listing information updated 5/26/2026 at 5:03pm

Available for the first time in 36 years, this charming home could be described as an artist' studio set in the most magical garden! Sitting on a corner lot, a green hedge of Arbor Vitae wraps the garden in privacy while paths wind through the ethereal mix of cosmos and hydrangeas. Inside, the first floor flows seamlessly between the formal living room with fireplace connecting to the dining room and kitchen. The big WOW is the amazing studio/family room added to the house in 2018 that overlooks the garden. All three bedrooms are on the second level with the primary opening to an enormous (unfinished) terrace. The basement is freshly painted and ready to be finished into additional living or workout space. Enjoy a brand new furnace and A/C condenser (2026), Water Heater (2016), Washer and Dryer (2013) and Roof (2018) Easy walk to the train and downtown Arlington Heights shops and restaurants. A lovely place to call home.
