Welcome to The Preserve-an elegant brick and limestone building offering sophisticated living in a prime Palatine location. This like-new 2-bedroom + den condo offers almost 1700 SF of thoughtfully designed space with fresh updates and stylish finishes throughout. Step into a bright, open-concept layout featuring hardwood floors, fresh paint, and all-new light fixtures. The island kitchen shines with white cabinetry, white quartz counters, an urban-chic iron fixture with Edison bulbs, and brand-new 2024 stainless appliances including a French door refrigerator with dual drawers, gas range, and microwave. Enjoy casual meals at the breakfast bar or host gatherings in the expansive living and dining area-spacious enough for oversized furniture and a large entertainment setup. Glass doors with transom windows lead to a covered balcony with ample space to relax or dine outdoors. The owner's suite is a true retreat-spanning 20 feet with dressing area, customized walk-in closet, and a luxurious bath featuring a clear glass shower, jetted tub, dual-sink white vanity with solid surface top, stone tile finishes, and polished nickel hardware. The guest bedroom offers generous wall of closets, a ceiling fan, and access to a beautifully finished stone tile bath. Need a home office or reading nook? The den is ideal for work-from-home life, complete with chair rail detailing and floating shelves. Additional highlights include a full-size in-unit laundry room with newer washer/dryer and triple shelving, and the best garage parking spot in the building-conveniently located near the entry with extra space on both sides. Plus, there's an unassigned outdoor space. This well-maintained, secure building offers a welcoming lobby with fresh, upscale decor, elevators, a community room, monitored mail area, and direct access to the heated garage with storage unit. All just minutes to the train, shopping, major expressways, and in the sought-after Fremd High School district.
