Description
Welcome to 420 Berkshire Lane, a beautifully maintained, move-in-ready ranch offering the perfect blend of comfort, style, and functionality in one of Des Plaines' most desirable neighborhoods. Situated on a spacious corner lot in a non-flood zone, this exceptional home features an inviting open layout filled with natural light, gleaming hardwood floors, fresh neutral paint, updated bathrooms, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere throughout. The updated kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining with stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, and generous counter space. The main level offers three spacious bedrooms, including a private primary suite with its own en-suite bathroom, plus a second updated full bathroom. The fully finished basement significantly expands the home's living space with a legal fourth bedroom featuring a full egress window and expansive finished areas that can easily serve as a family room, recreation room, home theater, fitness room, playroom, home office, or private guest suite, providing incredible flexibility for today's lifestyle.
