821 Heatherton Dr.

This is one of the most coveted locations in Cress Creek with a clear view of the pond out back & direct access into the McDowell Woods Forest Preserve. The backyard is stunning with mature trees, breathtaking vistas, privacy & a custom brick paver patio (with direct gas feed for your grill & speakers to listen to your favorite tunes). The home itself is so well done with a custom expansion completed in 2007. This expansion created a true chef's kitchen with professional appliances, custom cherry cabinets, a planning desk w/cabinets up & file drawers under, & so many other first class details and finishes. Also part of the expansion is the sun splashed breakfast room with unique ceiling & cove lighting, & an amazing vaulted family room (with a full wall of windows looking into the Forest Preserve). When this room was built, a second stone w/b fireplace was added (with gas log lighter), as were skylights & transom windows. There are surround sound speakers built in (as well as speakers in the KIT, DR & on the patio). A beautiful full bath was added on the main floor with a large walk-in shower, as was the mudroom & laundry center. A 7' x 7' walk-in pantry & custom serving area were part of the kitchen remodel & reconfiguration, as was installing a leaded glass pocket door to & from the dining room. Beautiful hardwood floors were added & the existing hardwood floors were refinished on the main level. Anderson windows with low E glass were part of the renovation. The 1st floor den (or cozy room) also has a custom fireplace, built in bookcases, double crown moldings & tray ceiling detail. There are double leaded glass French doors leading in & out of the den to the family room & to the kitchen. There is also a leaded glass pocket to the living room. The den/cozy room is a wonderful reading area & would make a perfect work from home space. Upstairs you have 4 generously sized room bedrooms-two of which have large walk-in closets. BRS 2,3, and 4 share the hall bath & the master bedroom has its own ensuite bath. Hardwood flooring is exposed in all 4 bedrooms. The large basement (expanded as well) offers 1060 SF of finished space & it is appointed as well as the upper levels with enhanced base trim and extensive can lighting. The finished spaces include versatile game & rec rooms, a "flex" room that could serve as a 5th bedroom & a full bath. There are 3 separate unfinished storage rooms (with one being a workshop space) & a easy-to-access concreted crawl. The electric service was new & upgraded beyond 200 AMPs. With the expansion & finished basement, there are 3207 sf above grade & approximately 1060 sf finished in the basement totaling MOL 4267 SF in total of superb comfort! This is a rare combination of a gorgeous updated Cress Creek property with the BEST Forest Preserve setting with spectacular open views! It doesn't get any better than this!
