Welcome to 18131 Crystal Lane--a treasured, one-owner all brick custom home crafted with pride and perfection. From the moment you arrive, the attention to detail is evident in every corner of this 2,691-sq ft residence. You'll find 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and spaces built for both day-to-day comfort and gracious entertaining. Step into a light-filled layout where formal and informal spaces flow together: the living and dining areas open to a chef's kitchen with custom stone countertops and ample storage. Just beyond, a two-level deck beckons you to dine al fresco or simply unwind while overlooking a generous green backyard. The primary suite is a true sanctuary--boasting a soaker tub and fireplace. A unique 13x15 storage loft is cleverly tucked away just off the main closet and accessed by a convenient pulley lift system from the garage--perfect for storing seasonal decor, keepsakes, or bulky items you want out of sight but within easy reach. The finished basement gives you options. There's a wide flex area perfect for a gym, playroom, or extra hangout space. The entertainment zone comes ready to enjoy with a wet bar and a pool table that doubles as ping-pong--staying with the home. There's also an open spot that's ideal for a movie or game area, plus an enclosed room with two closets that works great for an office or guest setup. A full bath with a shower ties it all together, making this level both versatile and inviting. The rare, insulated, and finished 4-car garage is a true standout--designed with painted drywall, a raised entrance for larger vehicles, and a fourth bay spacious enough to fit a boat, recreational vehicle, or serve as a workshop. But it's not just the home that's special--location matters. Situated roughly 26 miles from downtown Chicago, you're close enough for city culture and commuting options yet enjoy the peace and charm of suburban living. The nearby South Shore Line connects you straight into Millennium Station in about 30-35 minutes.

Welcome to a treasured, one owner all brick custom home crafted with pride and perfection. From the moment you arrive, the attention to detail is evident in every corner of this 2,691 sq ft residence. It's not every day you find a home with 3 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, this one's built for real life, with flexible spaces that work beautifully for daily living or hosting guests. Step into a skylight filled layout where formal and informal spaces flow together: the living and dining areas open to a chef's kitchen with custom stone countertops and ample storage. Just beyond, a two level deck beckons you to dine al fresco or simply unwind while overlooking a generous green backyard. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, boasting a soaker tub and fireplace. A unique 13x15 storage loft is cleverly tucked away just off the main closet and accessed by a convenient pulley lift system from the garage, perfect for storing seasonal decor, keepsakes, or bulky items you want out of sight but within easy reach. The finished basement offers incredible flexibility and space to make your own. A mirrored flex area is perfect for a home gym, playroom, or hangout spot, whatever fits your lifestyle. The entertainment zone is ready for fun, featuring a wet bar and a pool table that doubles as a ping pong table (and yes, it's staying with the home!). Just off the bar, there's a spacious area ideal for a movie night setup or game day lounge. Need a quiet workspace or a guest spot? There's also an enclosed room with two closets that works well as a home office or additional sleeping area. A full bath with a shower completes this lower level, making it both versatile and welcoming. The rare, insulated, and finished 4 car garage is a true standout, designed with painted drywall, a raised entrance for larger vehicles, and a fourth bay spacious enough to fit a boat, recreational vehicle, or serve as a workshop. But it's not just the home that's special, location matters. Situated roughly 26 miles from downtown Chicago, you're close enough for city culture and commuting options yet enjoy the peace and charm of suburban living. The nearby South Shore Line connects you straight into Millennium Station in about 30 to 35 minutes. Lansing itself delights with events at Fox Pointe, a walkable Ridge Road district of local shops and dining, and miles of scenic trails through the Thorn Creek and regional preserve systems. This home has been loved and meticulously maintained by its original owner, and it's ready for you to begin your own chapter, where custom craftsmanship meets lifestyle convenience just steps from Chicago.
