510 Highland ST New Athens, IL 62264

This all-brick corner-lot bungalow simply oozes charm from the moment you pull up, with its storybook exterior and a top-to-bottom interior remodel that blends modern comfort with classic character. The location couldn't be more convenient, sitting right at the corner of Highland Street for an easy commute while still feeling tucked into a friendly neighborhood. Step inside and you'll immediately notice the care and craftsmanship that went into refinishing this home. A handy side entrance opens into a bright mudroom with a drop zone and LVP flooring, leading to a dedicated laundry room—beautifully finished, neatly enclosed with a two-panel door, and best of all, right on the main floor.

The open layout brings the living, dining, and kitchen spaces together in a way that feels both airy and cozy. The kitchen shines with its large farm sink, stainless appliances, recessed lighting, 42” shaker cabinets, trending black accents, marble window sills, and durable LVP flooring. A leaded-glass back door adds a touch of vintage charm. The living room's oversized triple window floods the space with natural light and creates the perfect spot to showcase your holiday decor.

The PRIMARY main-floor bedroom offers a comfortable room with LVP flooring, a double closet, and LED lighting. A second main-floor bedroom with matching finishes sits near the centrally located full bath with a tub/shower combo and single vanity. Upstairs, you'll find a second MASTER SUITE beautifully finished bedroom with 2” blinds, LVP flooring, and a spacious landing accented by aluminum spindle railing and a board-and-batten stairwell. The upstairs bathroom is impressively large, featuring LVP flooring, niche storage, a double-size vanity, and a corner shower. The second master suite on this level offers even more space, complete with LVP flooring and an extra-deep closet.

This home has great storage! The DRY lower level adds flexibility with a third shower if needed and a second washer/dryer hookup. You could also finish this level for additional living space.

Outside, the generous side yard gives you plenty of room to entertain, garden, or simply relax and enjoy the charm this home radiates from every angle. This home is ready to go and will accommodate a fast closing!
