Description

Welcome to 8 Berk Lane in the desirable Lincolnshire Subdivision of Crete! This expansive quad-level home sits on three parcels and offers just under 5,000 square feet of living space. Featuring 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, plus a bonus office area conveniently located off the living room/kitchen, this property provides both functionality and endless potential.

Hardwood floors lie beneath the carpeting, just waiting to be revealed. The spacious eat-in kitchen, large family room, and basement provide ample room for gatherings and entertainment. Situated on a wooded lot, the backyard offers beautiful views and attracts local wildlife such as deer and foxes-ideal for nature lovers seeking peace and privacy. This is truly a rare chance to add sweat equity and transform this home into something spectacular in one of Crete's most established neighborhoods. Please Note: This is an estate sale and the property is being sold as-is, where-is.

    "Friends moved to Crete and I'm considering moving out of the congestion & crime of the city. I've known about Crete for 30 years but never really explored it. People jogging, walking their dogs, bicycling with their children. Each time I visit my friends, I don't want to go home. It's such a fabulous community, home prices are so amazing. Who needs the north shore, Oakbrook or Naperville??"
