Lockport, IL 60441

Tucked away on a beautiful 1.25-acre lot in unincorporated Lockport, this one-of-a-kind 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers something increasingly hard to find: space, privacy and a sense of retreat, while still being close to everything you need. From the moment you arrive along the horseshoe driveway, the property feels special. Step outside and imagine summer afternoons by the pool on the maintenance free deck, quiet mornings beneath the pergola, evenings gathered around the fire pit, and fresh vegetables and flowers growing in the large garden. Surrounded by newer landscaping and tucked away from neighboring homes, the backyard feels like your own private oasisIt's hard to believe such a peaceful setting is just minutes from I-80, I-355 and Silver Cross Hospital. With no HOA, you'll also have the freedom to make this property truly your own, whether that means adding a pole barn, an additional garage, or simply enjoying the open space exactly as it is. Inside, you'll find a home filled with character and room for everyone. Rather than a cookie-cutter floor plan, the home offers distinct spaces for gathering together and quiet places to retreat, making it easy to imagine holidays, celebrations and everyday moments unfolding here. The main level includes a bedroom, an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and marble countertops that flows seamlessly into the living room and sunroom divided only by a double-sided fireplace, formal dining, family room, office, updated half bath, foyer and laundry room. Upstairs are four generously sized bedrooms with abundant closet space and 2 updated full baths. The primary bedroom, with an ensuite bath, feels especially inviting with its own fireplace, creating a cozy retreat at the end of the day. And there's even more space downstairs. The huge, finished basement adds approximately 1,200 square feet of living area with a large recreation room plus an additional flex room that's ideal for guests, related living, a home office, hobbies or whatever your next chapter requires. Throughout the home, thoughtful updates and special details add warmth and character, including beautiful hardwood floors, beamed and cathedral ceilings, two fireplaces, updated railings, modern lighting and fixtures, and an epoxy garage floor. With five bedrooms, expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces, a 2.5-car garage and more than an acre of peaceful, private property, this isn't simply a house with more space. It's a place to slow down, spread out, gather the people you love and truly feel at home.
