Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac within a prestigious subdivision, 3161 E. Bending Creek Trail is a stunning four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home that blends architectural beauty with nature's tranquility. Sitting on a wooded lot with no neighbors to the east due to a protected Illinois wildlife area, this home offers complete privacy and breathtaking views. Walking through the front door, you're greeted by a custom wood staircase leading to a two-story family room with soaring vaulted ceilings lined with tongue-and-groove wood paneling. A striking wood-burning fireplace, framed in floor-to-ceiling brick, creates a cozy yet grand atmosphere, while two large patio doors open to an expansive deck that stretches the entire length of the house, perfect for relaxing or entertaining surrounded by mature trees. The formal dining area leads into a long galley-style kitchen with an overhang counter offering seating for four, making it an ideal space for casual gatherings. The main level features two spacious bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, a custom walk-in closet with built-in shelving, and a private patio door that leads directly to the deck, offering a peaceful retreat. The second main-level bedroom also has a walk-in closet with custom shelving for ample storage. Upstairs, a sunlit loft with skylights creates an airy, open feel while overlooking the grand family room below. Two additional bedrooms complete the second floor, one featuring a walk-in closet, a full bathroom, and a skylight that bathes the space in natural light. Outside, the full-length deck provides stunning views of the wooded surroundings, enhancing the home's secluded and natural ambiance. An oversized two-car garage and additional parking for six vehicles ensure plenty of space for guests or multiple drivers. With vaulted ceilings, custom woodwork, a grand fireplace, hardwood floors, and a breathtaking private setting, this home is truly one of a kind.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
