96 Brookside Dr, Glendale Heights IL – Under Contract in 2 Days
Two Days. That's All It Took.
In today's DuPage County real estate market, well-priced homes do not sit. And 96 Brookside Dr in Glendale Heights is the perfect example.
Listed on October 8th. Under contract by October 10th. Two days on market at $399,000.
This is what happens when a home is priced right, shows well, and hits the market at the right moment.
The Home
96 Brookside Dr is a spacious split-level that delivers more room than most buyers expect at this price point.
From the moment you walk in, the bright foyer sets a welcoming tone. Hardwood floors flow through the living and dining rooms, giving the main level a clean, classic feel. The kitchen is the standout - quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, tile flooring, and a breakfast nook with table space and sliding glass doors that open directly to the deck. Morning coffee inside or outside, your call.
The lower level adds a 20x20 family room with a wood-burning fireplace and gas starter - a setup that works equally well for movie nights, a kids' hangout, or weekend entertaining. A powder room and laundry/utility room round out the lower level.
Upstairs, the primary suite is a generous 17x17 with a large closet and dressing area and a private ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the second floor.
Out back, a large deck and a negotiable storage shed give the backyard real potential. Attached 2-car garage with opener and a concrete driveway finish the package.
This home is a great fit if you:
- Want move-in-ready space without a luxury price tag in DuPage County
- Need three bedrooms and multiple living areas for a growing family
- Want a big family room anchored by a fireplace for year-round entertaining
- Value outdoor living with a deck right off the kitchen
