It began, as all the best adventures do, with a curious door. Step through, and you will find a home that is rather like Wonderland itself: perfectly sensible one moment, and delightfully surprising the next. The five bedrooms each have a personality of their own. One is as sunny as Alice's disposition, another as calm as the Dormouse after tea, and another as cheerful as the Cheshire Cat's grin. The kitchen, renovated in 2020, is a Mad Hatter's delight, with space for tea parties, pancake breakfasts, and perhaps a little harmless nonsense. Out the back, the yard stretches wide enough for croquet with flamingos, or, if you fancy something more conventional, a friendly barbecue on a summer's evening. Humpty Dumpty would likely argue about the meaning of 'upgrade,' but even he could not quibble with a roof from 2022, a furnace and sump pump from 2018, windows and siding from 2011, and a hot water heater from 2024. Below, the unfinished basement invites you further down the rabbit hole, promising adventure as boundless as the imagination: perhaps a workshop, a stage, or a room for games that last well past bedtime. Step outside and you are in a lively stretch of North Streamwood, with parks and forest preserves close enough to tempt even the laziest Caterpillar to explore. There are shops, cafes, golf courses, and easy paths to the wider world by highway, I-90, or commuter train. And so the story brings you here, to a house with rooms enough for your own adventures and a yard that may be even lovelier than you remember it tomorrow. Alice might say the best way to find such a place is to go there, and perhaps now that you have, you will not wish to leave.
