The current owners’ love of the Chicago White Sox is reflected throughout this home’s decor at 4423 Buckley in Lisle, all the way down to the White Sox toilet lid and black-and-white sponged painted walls in the hallways. Whether you love baseball, hot dogs or apple pie, however, you’ll likely find lots to love in this three-bedroom home.

The colonial-style home is listed at $249,900 by Diane Coyle of Re/Max Enterprises of Downers Grove. The home features an open layout with vaulted living room and dining room ceilings. Its ceramic-tiled foyer opens to the carpeted living and dining rooms, which measure 15 by 16 feet and 13 by 11, respectively.

If the aroma from the oven doesn’t attract family members into the kitchen, the fragrant smell of lilacs blooming just outside the window over the kitchen sink likely will. The kitchen, which measures 16 by 11, has oak cabinets and a large pantry.

A breakfast bar might be a spot for a late night bite to eat and conversation. A planning desk might be a spot for a home computer or a convenient place to sit and write up the bills or make out the grocery list.

All of the kitchen appliances, including a built-in microwave, will stay with the home after it is sold. The washing machine and dryer in the nearby utility room are 1 year old and also included with the home.

The kitchen is open to the family room, which is also inviting with deep colored walls, a gas fireplace and Pergo flooring. A sliding glass door leads out to the deck and fenced back yard with a storage shed.

The family room might be where the family gathers to unwind and relax after dinner and a long day of work. However, many fun family times could likely be spent in any room of this home. The home’s full basement features a pool table, which is also included with the home.

This area might be the spot of many nighttime family gatherings and competitions. The basement has paneled walls and features a large work room and plenty of storage space, including a cedar closet.

Once the games are over for the night, the family would be ready to head upstairs to the home’s three bedrooms. However, they might first make a pit stop at the nearby powder room, which has ceramic-tiled flooring.

Carpeting is in each of these rooms. The first bedroom measures 12 by 10. The second bedroom measures 11 by 11. Both of these rooms have large, generous-size closets and share a hall bath. The master bedroom, which measures 19 by 12, features a vaulted ceiling and a dramatic palladium window. It has a walk-in closet and a master bath with shower.

The home was built in 1992. The lot size is 60 by 175. Taxes for 1998 were $4,140.48. The home is within walking distance to a train station. It also is accessible to Interstates 88 and 355.
