This exceptional home sits at the gateway of Ruby Street and Walker Avenue in Clarendon Hills. Just steps away from Hosek Park and a short stroll to Walker Elementary, this would be an ideal family home for those with young children or couples starting their family.

 

The expanded, original residence welcomes you with a charming, meandering front walkway that sets the tone for the home's delightful character. Many newer features, including the roof, furnace, and tankless water heater, add to 259 Walker Avenue’s appeal.

 

The current owners made impressive upgrades, including hiring Hinsdale-based The Walker Group to relocate the kitchen into a spacious, vaulted room that overlooks the inviting backyard. With its whitewashed rough-sawn cedar and exposed beams, this space looks like something straight out of a designer magazine. It seamlessly connects to the family room, creating a cohesive and inviting atmosphere.

 

The primary bedroom features an expanded, loft-like design with large trapezoid windows that flood the room with natural light by day and offer starlit views by night. A first-floor office keeps your commute to a minimum, while additional interior space in the backyard offers endless possibilities….

 

The separate building perched at the rear of the back yard has served as a man cave, she shed, office, and movie theater. Now it's ready to take on the vision of its new owner. Once featured on HGTV, this separate building boasts french doors, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and sun-filled windows.

 

The private fenced yard stretches over 200 feet and includes mature trees, including a 100+ year-old elm. A gas fire pit provides a perfect spot for outdoor gatherings and relaxation.

This home stands out for its unique character and modern amenities, offering the best of both worlds.
