Large single family homes in Southgate in The Glen

April 15, 2019 by Margaret Ludemann

There’s roughly the same number of single family homes and attached homes in The Glen in Glenview, a North Shore suburban village close to Chicago. Attached homes are townhomes, row homes, duplexes, two-flats and condos. Of The Glen’s ten neighborhoods with privately-owned homes, five offer single family homes which is today’s blog topic. Home prices for single family homes range from the $600s to over $2 million.

The largest single family homes are found in the Southgate development. Southgate offers 237 homes ranging in size from 2600 to over 5000 square feet. Fifty-five Estate Homes on lots of at least 1/3 of an acre border The Glen Club’s award-winning golf course, so the views are amazing. The other 182 homes are found on Southgate’s lovely winding streets with large, beautiful trees and landscaping.

Southgate even has its own playground for small children. It’s a private area for Southgate residents only. Naturally this development, as with all Glen neighborhoods, is close to Glen Town Center’s many restaurants and shops as well as its movie theater and book store. All in all, Southgate is hard to beat.

If you’re interested in large, beautiful homes, let me take you to Southgate to look around. There are several homes for sale.

Luxury Glenview homes…in Southgate at The Glen

November 14, 2016 by Margaret Ludemann

One of the most beautiful residential communities on Chicagoland’s North Shore may be found in The Glen, the upscale residential and retail development in Glenview Illinois. It’s called Southgate, and if you are in the market for a large, luxury home, you owe it to yourself to consider one of its currently listed homes for sale.

The Southgate neighborhood lies comfortably on 104 beautifully landscaped acres, and is home to 299 attached and detached homes of very high quality. The property borders The Glen Club’s 18 hole championship golf course. Southgate has a private playground, multiple pocket parks, and a pedestrian path to Westbrook Elementary School. 666 adults and 383 children live in Southgate for a total of 1,049 total residents, making it the largest of the various Glen communities.

Four housing types may be found in Southgate.

There are 55 custom, detached “estate” homes which border The Glen Club golf course with stunning views. These properties are zoned R-3 (three homes per acre) so they offer very large yards. The homes are large, too, some over 5,000 square feet; and they sell at price points between about $1.5 and $2.5 million, though some have sold for more.

182 detached, single family homes – which the developer referred to as “semi-custom” – were extensively adapted and modified so that no two homes are identical. Zoning is R-4, four homes per acre. Most of these homes range between 2,600 and 4,500 square feet, and they typically sell between $1.3 and $1.7 million.

38 lovely row homes offer 1,585 to 1,919 square feet and two to three bedrooms. They typically sell in the $500s.

24 cozy villas are sized between 1,625 to 2,055 square feet, and they offer two or three bedrooms. Most of these homes sell in the $400s and $500s.

If you would like more information about Southgate or The Glen generally, please contact me. I am an award winning Realtor and a proud owner of a Glen home.

Large variety of luxury home types and prices in The Glen

August 29, 2016 by Margaret Ludemann

One of the great things about The Glen is the variety of home types, styles and prices available to buyers. The Glen is residential and retail development in Glenview Illinois on the grounds of the former Naval Air Station Glenview. It’s just eighteen miles north of downtown Chicago or, to put it another way, a short train ride to Union Station. The first homes in The Glen were built about fifteen years ago, and new construction continues in one of our ten neighborhoods, Westgate. But this article isn’t about Westgate at The Glen or commute times. It’s about variety.

There are about 1300 homes in The Glen, not counting retirement and assisted living facilities. Of those 1300 properties about half are single family homes while the other half (naturally) consists of attached housing units of various types. For instance, there are townhomes (some as large as 4100 square feet), row homes, condos, duplexes, and two-flats. We have brick homes, wood homes, single level homes, four-story homes, small homes, and huge homes. There are homes overlooking the retail area (Glen Town Center), along the Gallery Park, and bordering the two Glen golf courses. We have colonial homes, contemporary homes, Georgian homes, and home styles that don’t exactly fit any particular style…except really beautiful!

Home prices in The Glen vary widely. On the lower end are some lovely luxury condos and townhomes starting in the $300’s. On the high side, some single family homes bordering The Glen Club’s award-winning golf course sell for well over $2 million. So, whatever your housing budget, the odds are pretty good that you can find a wonderful home here.

I’ve lived in The Glen since the early days of the development, and I am an award-winning Realtor affiliated with Coldwell Banker. My Glen Realty Group is focused on the sale of new and existing homes here in this very special community. If you may be interested in a Glen home, please call me at 847-401-1802 or email me at margaret.ludemann@cbexchange.com.
