Listed October 14, 2026. MLS #12777446.

The Home

Single-level ranch living on the main floor, with a finished basement underneath when you need the extra space.

Hardwood floors run throughout. The living and dining area is anchored by a double-sided fireplace - wood and gas logs - that works from both sides. The kitchen has granite countertops, stainless appliances updated in 2022, a pull-out pantry, and sliding glass doors straight to the deck.

The primary suite is 12x18 with a tray ceiling, walk-in closet, and a private bath with double sinks and granite. Two more bedrooms share an updated full bath with white subway tile.

First-floor laundry. Attached two-car garage with built-in shelving.

Downstairs, the finished basement adds 857 square feet - family room with wet bar, a bonus room, and storage. Total finished space: approximately 2,574 sq ft.

This home is a great fit if you:

Want single-level living without sacrificing space or options
Are drawn to a home with real character - hardwood floors, a fireplace, granite finishes
Need a guest space or flex room for family visits without giving up a main-floor bedroom
Value a deck and outdoor space you can actually use
Want first-floor laundry and low-maintenance living built in from day one

The Community

Grand Haven is the name you hear consistently when buyers start asking about 55+ communities in the southwest suburbs. There is a reason for that.

This is a gated, amenity-rich community managed by First Services Residential. The clubhouse sits at the center of it, and the lineup is what you would expect from a community that takes active adult living seriously - an outdoor pool, tennis courts, a fitness center, and a full calendar of clubs and activities. The kind of place where neighbors actually know each other.

Golf is close. Mistwood Golf Course is right near the community, which is a legitimate draw for buyers who want to keep that part of their routine.

The location puts you on the southwest side of the Chicago metro, close to I-55 and I-355 without being buried in suburb sprawl. Romeoville and the surrounding area - Bolingbrook, Lockport, Joliet - offer plenty of shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences within a short drive. Veterans Memorial Park, the Illinois and Michigan Canal Trail, and the DuPage River are all accessible nearby for buyers who like to stay active outside the community as well.

The HOA at $331 per month covers common insurance, clubhouse access, the fitness center, pool, lawn care, and snow removal. For buyers moving from a larger home, the math on what you hand off versus what you gain is usually worth running.

One detail worth knowing: owners can rent after living in the home for two years.

This location is a great fit if you:

Want a gated community with full amenities and a real social calendar
Play golf and want Mistwood Course within reach
Commute occasionally and need reasonable highway access (I-55 and I-355 both nearby)
Want low-maintenance exterior living without sacrificing community feel
Are relocating within the southwest suburbs or coming from the city and looking for a lifestyle transition
