About This Home
As of July 2021Imagine sitting on the 2nd floor balcony or front porch as another beautiful sunrise breaks over the unobstructed and protected views of the open prairie. Glancing to the north, enjoy the special and unique view of wetlands and Lake Aldo Leopold. For a more private and quiet setting, relax on the composite deck in the backyard. For some fun and activity, you are just steps away from a fantastic recreation area and playground surrounded by homes. If that's not enough, take a walk a few blocks down the street to the Station Village Common Area and Pavilion and your entrance to nature filled trails, other PC neighborhoods and playgrounds. When it's time to come indoors, a beautifully customized kitchen and open interior awaits you with personalized touches throughout. When it's time for games, fun, hobbies or other activities, head to the thoughtfully finished and expansive 3rd floor. The full unfinished basement provides plenty of opportunity for your great ideas and future plans. It has already been roughed in for a bathroom. This rarely available Watts model has been meticulously cared for and provides space for just about every need you could imagine or desire. Recent improvements include: 2017 - sump pump, back up system & ejector pit; 2018 - refrigerator, dishwasher; 2019 - roof, exterior paint; 2020 - furnace, hot water tank, oven range, exhaust, mini-fridge, toilets, ceiling fans; 2021 - 5 ton a/c unit, carpet, washer & dryer, driveway resealed, interior paint, landscape. Prairie Crossing is a nationally acclaimed conservation community with vast stretches of protected prairie throughout. Resident amenities include ten miles of trails for hiking, biking, cross-country skiing and horseback riding. The private lake with beach provides summer swimming, kayaking, fishing and sailing. In winter there's ice skating, ice hockey and ice fishing. Additional amenities include tennis courts, sand volleyball court, multiple playgrounds, and community farm. Commuters appreciate the ten-minute walk to two Metra train lines going to Union Station and O'Hare Airport.
