Listing information updated 7/3/2026 at 6:04am

Welcome to 1553 Allen Lane, located in the highly sought-after and charming Surrey Hill neighborhood. Situated on an oversized corner lot, this Cape Cod-style home offers four bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms. The exterior is highlighted by impeccable landscaping, mature trees, and exceptional curb appeal. Enjoy a fully updated in-ground saltwater pool, complemented by a tranquil outdoor living space featuring a cabana, automatic awning, fenced yard, and custom LED exterior lighting. Inside, the home offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with an open floor plan. The updated kitchen flows seamlessly into the formal dining and living rooms and opens to a spacious family room. Thoughtfully renovated, the kitchen provides easy access to the backyard, making it ideal for entertaining, family gatherings, and poolside get-togethers. The main level features a contemporary color palette and abundant windows that fill the home with natural light. Upstairs, you'll find a generously sized primary suite along with three additional bedrooms that share a well-appointed hall bathroom. The basement has also been fully updated with new flooring, lighting, electrical work, and fresh pain. Over the years, the homeowners have made numerous improvements, including a kitchen renovation in 2019; new Hardie Board siding and oversized gutters in 2021; updated stairways in 2021; a new roof in 2023; and a basement renovation, new furnace, and new air conditioning system in 2025. Additional updates include a new pool liner and pool stairs. Homes in Surrey Hill are rarely available, thanks to the neighborhood's beautiful tree-lined streets, quiet cul-de-sacs nearby parks, annual block parties, holiday sleigh rides, and strong sense of community. Surrey Hill also offers convenient access to downtown St. Charles, Wredling Middle School, and St. Charles East High School.
