About This Home

As of June 2025

This is the one you've been waiting for! These gorgeous Brantwood homes are such a find!! This beautifully updated ranch home has it all! Total kitchen remodel with gorgeous cabinets, stainless appliances and granite countertops! Engineered hardwood floors throughout the main living areas. Both bathrooms have been beautifully remodeled too! New carpet in all 3 bedrooms! (new since pics and video!) HUGE fenced-in backyard! Boiler heat for a wonderful even heat all winter! BUT, new furnace and a/c installed one year ago, so heat can be changed over to forced air, if that's preferred! Whole house fan is wonderful for cooling the house quickly! Windows replaced about 12 years ago. Underground sprinklers already turned on for the season! This is such a great subdivision, with an awesome new park and tennis courts, that is close to restaurants, shopping and a quick commute to Chicago!
