Some homes you walk into and immediately understand why a family stayed for three decades. This is one of them. Finding a turn-key raised ranch in LaSalle's established Heritage Park — with real space on both levels and updates already done — has been the hard part of the search this year, and this is the home that ends it. Step into a tiled foyer and up to a living room that stops you: vaulted ceilings, skylights pouring in light, and rich laminante underfoot. The kitchen is bright and easy to live in, with clean white cabinetry, stainless appliances, and a dining area made for everyday dinners and the ones that run long. Three generous bedrooms upstairs, including a primary with a large closet, and a beautifully updated main bath with a double vanity, glass vessel sinks, and a tiled glassdoor shower. Downstairs is where this home quietly outperforms its price: a massive family room anchored by a brick-surround fireplace, walk-out access straight to the backyard, a second full bath, and flexible rooms ready to become a home o??ice, a guest space, or whatever the next chapter needs. Out back, a wooden pergola shades the patio over a fully fenced yard with mature trees and raised garden beds — privacy, room for kids and pets, and a corner for the gardener in the family. Close to Malden Road shopping, quick to Highway 401 and the border, and surrounded by the parks, trails, and schools that make this one of LaSalle's most family-friendly communities. The owners raised their family here and tended to this home for thirty-one years before deciding it was time to downsize. Thirty one years of mornings, dinners, and summers made here — the next thirty-one belong to whoever is ready to begin. (id:4555)
