Description
Welcome to 420 Berkshire Lane, a beautifully maintained and move-in-ready ranch home situated on a premium corner lot in one of Des Plaines' most established neighborhoods. The oversized corner lot provides enhanced curb appeal, additional yard space, greater privacy, more natural light, and a more open feel than many neighboring properties. Offering the perfect blend of comfort, functionality, and peace of mind, this home is also located in a non-flood zone, a major advantage that can help reduce insurance costs and provide long-term confidence in your investment. From the moment you step inside, you'll appreciate the bright and inviting layout filled with natural light, gleaming hardwood floors, fresh paint, and thoughtful updates throughout. The spacious living and dining areas flow seamlessly into the updated kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, generous counter space, and a layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A standout feature is the spacious primary suite with its own private en-suite bathroom, a rare and highly sought-after amenity in many ranch homes. The main level also offers two additional well-sized bedrooms and another full bathroom, creating a practical floor plan ideal for families, guests, or convenient single-level living. The fully finished basement dramatically expands the home's versatility with a legal fourth bedroom featuring a full egress window, making it perfect for extended family, guests, a home office, recreation room, fitness area, media room, or private living arrangement. Outside, enjoy a comfortable backyard with patio space ideal for grilling, entertaining, gardening, or relaxing on summer evenings. An attached two-car garage and additional driveway parking offer excellent convenience for homeowners and guests alike. Major improvements, including updated windows and renovated bathrooms, have already been completed, allowing the next owner to move in and enjoy the home without the burden of major projects or deferred maintenance. Ideally located near I-90, I-294, Metra transportation, shopping, restaurants, parks, schools, and O'Hare International Airport, this home offers an exceptional combination of suburban comfort, accessibility, and everyday convenience. Well-maintained, thoughtfully updated, and offering flexible living space both upstairs and down, 420 Berkshire Lane presents a rare opportunity to own a truly move-in-ready home on a desirable corner lot in a sought-after Des Plaines location. Easy to show and quick close available.
