Poised on nearly half an acre in unincorporated Palos Heights, this distinguished four-bedroom, four-bath residence pairs generous proportions with polished updates and remarkable versatility. Nearly 2,500 square feet above grade, plus a finished basement creating a total of 3600 square feet, create an expansive setting for daily living, entertaining, and multigenerational flexibility. Vaulted ceilings lend architectural drama to the flowing living spaces, where two fireplaces bring warmth and atmosphere. The refreshed kitchen is composed with quartz countertops, crisp white cabinetry, and an intuitive layout adjoining the formal dining room. Updated baths elevate the home's refined character, while a dedicated office supports effortless work-from-home days. The primary suite provides a private retreat with its own en-suite bath.
