Welcome to 43W701 Willow Creek Dr – on the market for the first time! This impeccably maintained, one-owner brick residence is gracefully set on a private one-acre lot backing to tranquil open-space prairie views. A rare blend of craftsmanship, care, and setting, the home reflects true pride of ownership throughout. The exterior is a true highlight, featuring a brick patio, fully fenced yard, mature trees, and beautifully established perennial gardens. Maintained by a resident floriculturist, the grounds come alive throughout the seasons with thoughtfully curated blooms, creating a serene outdoor retreat rarely found. Inside, timeless woodwork and rich hardwood flooring bring warmth and character. The second level offers five bedrooms, a conveniently located laundry room, and an expansive unfinished space located off the primary suite – ideal for a future bonus room, private retreat, or flexible living space. The home has a spacious three-car garage with oversized bays for added functionality and storage. The full 9-foot unfinished basement is stubbed for a future full bathroom, offering exceptional potential for expansion while allowing the next owner to design to their preferences. The home has seen numerous major updates over the years, including a renovated kitchen with quartz countertops and newer appliances, dual HVAC systems with zoning and humidifiers, refreshed interior finishes, and extensive water system improvements. A whole-house pre-inspection was completed in 2025, with recommended items addressed by licensed professionals. Additional improvements include a new water heater, updated well components, fresh neutral paint and new carpet throughout. With solid brick construction, exceptional maintenance, and a peaceful prairie backdrop, this home offers enduring quality, thoughtful updates, and a setting that is both private and truly special. Willow Creek is one mile from 1-88 and in close proximity to the middle and high school making an ideal location within the school district. Near shopping, restaurants and the Metra station.
