Featuring homes in:
DOWNTOWN NAPERVILLE
This charming home has lots of space for this large family. This is a tear-down that has real old Naperville Charm, decorated in a traditional style. The children's rooms are spacious and fun. A 3rd story playroom is perfect for 5 kids.
WHITE EAGLE
This beautiful traditional old world home belongs to one of our garden club members. You will marvel at the staircase and openness of the first floor with the Master Bedroom on the first level. This home has many rooms to explore.
STILLWATER
Here is a home that combines traditional with contemporary. Another large family with so many fun decorated rooms. The children's bathroom upstairs will make you think you are in Hawaii!!
PEMBROOK COMMONS
From the outside this looks like a ranch, but, is in fact, a two story home with lots of amenities. The basement is very family friendly with a unique media room and games.
