Half an acre of mature trees in the heart of Onwentsia Gardens. Behind a circular drive at 85 Honeysuckle Rd, this classic red brick home was built in 1984 and made to last. Inside, more than 5,100 square feet unfold with classic proportion. Hardwood underfoot. Crown molding and wainscoting that catch the afternoon light. This is a home designed for gathering, with room for every occasion to unfold at its own pace. The living room and family room, each roughly 18 by 22 feet, sit side by side, each anchored by its own fireplace. One is made for long evenings and a glass of something good. The other opens through French doors to the backyard, so a winter night by the fire and a summer evening outdoors are only steps apart. Across the foyer, the dining room is sized for a full table and conversation that lingers. The kitchen sits at the center of it all, gathered around a large island with a Thermador gas cooktop and double wall ovens. Its eat-in breakfast area looks out over the yard and opens to the deck, so mornings begin with treetops and dinners drift outside. It's a canvas ready for the finishes you've always imagined, as are the baths. Five bedrooms, five full baths, and a powder room offer everyone a retreat of their own. The primary suite brings a private bath, a walk-in closet, and a sense of calm. Every bedroom connects to a bath, and the fifth bedroom, set apart above the garage with its own, is a natural fit for guests or a quiet studio. Outdoors is where this home truly opens up. A deck of more than 500 square feet overlooks a deep, private lawn beneath a leafy canopy, with space to play, to host, or simply to watch the light move across the grass. For anyone who loves to grow things, the enclosed garden with established beds is ready for heirloom tomatoes, fresh herbs, and armfuls of cut flowers. Quieter spaces round out the main floor. A private office keeps work in its place, and the sun room, wrapped in windows and comfortable year-round with its own mini split system, is where coffee lingers and books get finished. Below, the lower level adds a generous recreation room, a second kitchen, and a full bath, ready for game nights, fitness, or overflow guests. Dual-zone heating and cooling and an attached two-car garage with epoxy floors attend to the details. Market Square and the Metra are 2.5 miles away, and Onwentsia Club is just 1.5. Lovingly cared for by one family since 1997, this home is ready for its next chapter. Feel it for yourself.
