Property Description
Blackberry Creek Pond Views | Finished Basement + New Roof & HVAC Experience Blackberry Creek living with scenic pond and walking-path views right from your backyard. This Georgian-style home welcomes you with a charming front porch and sun-filled interiors with hardwood floors throughout the main level. The spacious kitchen is built for gathering, featuring double islands, granite countertops, white cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances, and it opens to the adjacent family room with a cozy fireplace. Host holidays in the formal dining room or enjoy casual mornings at the breakfast bar and breakfast area. Upstairs, retreat to the vaulted primary suite with a large walk-in closet and spa-style bath offering double sinks, a soaking tub, and a separate shower with full-body sprays. Three additional bedrooms, a full hall bath, and convenient second-floor laundry complete the upper level. The finished basement adds exceptional flexibility with a large rec room, second fireplace, wet bar, full bath, and a bonus room (plumbed for a sink) ideal for a studio, hobby room, or home office. Big-ticket updates deliver peace of mind: new roof, gutters, and downspouts (2025); high-efficiency furnace and A/C (Dec 2024); and new washer system with pedestal mini washer (perfect for small loads), plus new dryer and dishwasher (2025). The interior was repainted in 2022, so the home feels move-in ready. Additional features include a radon mitigation system, backup sump pump, and owned water softener. Relax on the patio overlooking the pond and walking path, and enjoy being close to schools, parks, Metra, shopping, and I-88.
