The Brighton Lakes subdivision is located near Rt. 59 and Theodore Rd in Plainfield IL. The neighborhood features a private clubhouse and pool for resident use. There is a homeowners association for the community of $70 per month, which includes the use of the clubhouse and pool.
The homes in the Brighton Lakes were built around 1996, but I’m not sure who the builder of this community was since I didn’t leave here when the community was being built.

The truth is, the time is right when things make sense for you!

The need to buy or sell is dependent on personal circumstances, not necessarily market conditions. While we all want to get the best deal we possibly be can, holding on, might mean missing out.
Getting married, having a baby, finishing college… even divorce, may accelerate your need to buy or sell a house in real estate market that is less than perfect, for both buyers and sellers.
Of course we all know sellers have their challenges in a buyers market like we are experiencing right now in Plainfield IL and Naperville, but buyers don’t necessarily have the upper hand either. Obtaining credit has become a challenge all unto itself as the credit market and lending criteria are constantly changing.
No one knows when the real estate market will become more stable and predictable, but life doesn’t wait for indicators like these.
Is this the right time to buy a house? It is if you find a house that meets your needs, at a price you can… and are willing to afford.

As anyone who has been living in Plainfield IL for the last year knows, the downtown area has recently been renovated. Unfortunately, that meant avoiding the area for quite some time. About 2 months ago, my car needed some work so I took it up to Plainfield Automotive Inc. on Rt. 59. Since the time it was going to take to fix my car was going to overlap lunch time, I decided to walk into town to get a bite to eat. I wasn’t sure where I was going to go, but I started down Rt. 59 in the rain and turned down Des Plaines St and ran right into The Front Street Cantina in Plainfield.
I felt like a loser sitting down in the restaurant all by myself since the kids were with my father in law at home, but that wasn’t about to stop this hungry pregnant girl from embarrassing myself!
I’d never been to the Front Street Cantina to eat before, but the food was absolutely delicious. They had some really terrific lunch specials and authentic complementary chips and salsa. I thought to myself, this is the perfect place to bring the family for some casual authentic Mexican food, or great place to grab a couple of drinks with friends on the weekend.
I’ve been back several times since my recent discovery of The Front Street Cantina in Plainfield IL (but this time I wasn’t alone
), and everything I’ve tried on the menu is delicious. My personal favorites are the Chicken Fajitas and the Cheese Enchiladas. The food is served fast and hot, which is great if you get the chance to sneak in on your lunch break.
If you’ve never been to The Front Street Cantina in Plainfield, I highly recommend it. You won’t be dissapointed!
