Dupo, IL 62239
Some homes make you choose between room to live and a yard to enjoy. This one doesn't. Set on a level, fully fenced third of an acre in a quiet pocket of north Dupo, 2024 Diane Drive offers 2,400 square feet of finished living space and four bedrooms — with open ground behind the property instead of a neighbor's back window.
A decorative front door with sidelight panels opens onto a classic split-foyer staircase with solid wood treads and a handsome spindled rail. Upstairs, the living room stretches out beneath a large picture window trimmed in decorative millwork, filling the space with afternoon light.
The dining area flows directly from the living room and opens through French doors onto the back deck — an easy handoff from dinner table to evening outside. Alongside it, the eat-in kitchen offers ceramic tile flooring, a decorative tile backsplash, and generous cabinetry with room to work. Every appliance stays with the home, washer and dryer included.
Two bedrooms and both full baths sit down the main hallway. The hall bath offers a large vanity and tub-shower combination. At the end of the hall, the primary bedroom opens up with a walk-in closet, a quiet sitting area, and a private bath featuring a jetted whirlpool tub.
This is where the home separates itself from others in its range. The walk-up lower level is fully finished and genuinely usable — not an afterthought.
A large family room sits at the front of the house beneath a wide daylight window. A second living space beside it works just as easily as a media room, study, or den. Two more bedrooms follow, each with a large egress window and a roomy closet.
At the end of the level, a tiled bonus room with a bay window sits right off the garage entry — the ideal spot to kick off snowy boots, or to set up a home office with real natural light. Laundry with a scrub sink and generous under-stair storage complete the space.
Step out the dining room's French doors onto an upper deck, down to a second larger deck, and then onto a patio that runs nearly the full width of the house and continues over toward the garage. Beyond it, a concrete pad with a basketball goal is ready for a game.
Mature trees throw real shade across the lawn. A storage shed with a roll-up overhead door — about five years old — handles the mower and the seasonal gear. And with nothing built behind the property, the yard feels considerably bigger than its dimensions suggest.
The attached two-car garage is oversized, with interior access down to the lower level and a service door at the rear. Better still, a second single overhead door at the back lets you drive straight through into the backyard — a feature you rarely find, and one that trailer, mower, and project owners will appreciate immediately.
The architectural shingle roof is approximately 10 years old and the carpet approximately five. Insulated double-hung windows throughout, central air, forced air heat, and 200-amp electrical service. And...there's no HOA.
North Dupo is a quiet, low-traffic corner of town — only a few streets, with little reason for anyone to pass through. It stays peaceful without stranding you: I-255 is close by, and crossing the JB Bridge puts you into the St. Louis metro area in a matter of minutes. Dupo District 196 schools serve the neighborhood.
Quiet where you live. Connected where you need to be.
