Live, Dine, Shop, Play...in the North Shore’s Premiere Community

The Glen’s art fair was a huge success…again!

August 10, 2015 by Margaret Ludemann

The annual Glen Art Fair was held this past weekend, August 8 and 9, and as always it was a huge success. This prestigious (and fun!) event attracted scores of artists from throughout the United States to Tower Drive, Glen Town Center’s “main street”. Attendance was high, and as they say, a good time was had by all.

The Glen is the north shore’s premier lifestyle community, meaning it has beautiful homes, an outstanding array of restaurants, upscale shopping, jogging trails, golf courses, tennis courts, and a picturesque lake.  It is located on the site of the former Glenview Naval Air Station in Glenview, Illinois, approximately 18 miles north of downtown Chicago.

Visitors to the fair were treated to art of many genres including paintings, photography, sculpture, glass works, folk art, crafts, cartooning, digital art, and even what is known as “wearable art”. In fact, as I’m typing this blog, I’m wearing a striking blouse that I purchased at the fair. I live in the Glen’s Tower Crossing development only a block away from the fair!

This will all occur again next August. You might want to jot it down in your calendar. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it as much as those of us who are fortunate homeowners and residents of The Glen. And if you may be interested in living in the Glen, please give me a call. I am a local realtor who specializes in Glen properties – single family homes, row homes, town homes, two flats, duplexes and condos.

Regency at The Glen sales are picking up steam

July 23, 2015 by Margaret Ludemann

Judging from 2015 real estate sales in the Glen’s Regency development, it’s obvious that this new’ish neighborhood is already turning over to second owners. While the development only sold out last year, several homes of early buyers have re-sold and others rented in the first half of this year. This is good news for buyers looking for Glen properties at somewhat smaller sizes with more modest price points than many other local neighborhoods.

Here’s a little background. Pulte Homes constructed 104 luxury townhomes, 38 ranch villas, and 2 single family homes in the Regency at the Glen development in Glenview Illinois. The townhomes are offered in 4 different models ranging in size from 1523 sq ft to 1835 sq ft. There are 2 models of villas (duplexes) ranging in size from 1883 sq ft to 2493 sq ft. Regency is located literally across the street from two wonderful golf courses, The Glen Club (18 hole championship course) and Glenview Prairie Club (9 holes). It’s also a short walk to Glen Town Center’s many shops and restaurants.

Six Regency homes have already been sold by their original owners in the first half of 2015, 4 of these were townhomes and 2 were villas. The townhomes each sold in the $400s, and the villas sold in the high $600s. There are 4 more Regency homes (all townhomes) under contract between their original owners and new buyers; these are expected to close in the third quarter of the year. Four townhomes have also rented this year.

So now is a great time for buyers who want to live in the Glen. Regency homes are on the market as well as single family homes, row homes, townhomes, and condos in other areas of the Glen including Chapel Crossing, Cambridge, Landings, Tower Crossing, Patriot Commons, and Southgate. I’ve lived in the Glen for 12 years, and as a leading Glen realtor I am familiar with each neighborhood and housing type. If you may be interested in living in Regency or any other area of the Glen, please contact me.

Walk to Glen Town Center’s restaurants and shops from your new condo at Patriot Commons

June 29, 2015 by Margaret Ludemann

Condos in the Glen have always sold well. And why not? After all, not only do you get a beautiful home, but you also get the incredible lifestyle that only the Glen has to offer. Let me tell you more.

The Glen is the premier lifestyle community on Chicago’s north shore in Glenview Illinois. The focal point is Glen Town Center with its 17 restaurants, scores of shops including a great book store, a 10 screen movie theater, and much more. There are 9 residential neighborhoods with all types of luxury homes including single family, townhomes, row homes, condos, duplexes, villas, and two-flats. And…new construction is still available!

I would highly recommend the Patriot Commons development which offers breathtaking condos ranging in size between 1050 and 1400 square feet. One and two bedroom units (some with dens) are for sale offering hardwood floors and stunning chef’s kitchens with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and Kohler faucets. Some units have dramatic views of The Glen Club Championship Golf Course; and all homes have private balconies. Indoor parking is available for all units.

But the homes are only part of the story. Patriot Commons homes are only a few steps from Glen Town Center, so your “commute” to an evening out is – if you’re walking slowly – about a minute or two. You can also walk to The Glen’s Metra Station with train service to Chicago’s Union Station in about a half hour.

Patriot Commons FINAL PHASE is over half sold out, but there are still 14 striking homes available with delivery expected in the fall of 2016. Home prices range between $325,000 and $482,000. If you would like to see Patriot Commons please contact me. I am a Glen homeowner and an award winning Realtor affiliated with @properties.

Beaver Cleaver would love this Glen home, and so will you.

June 11, 2015 by Margaret Ludemann

The Cleaver family would love this home. So would Ozzie and Harriet.

I generally don’t blog about my individual sales listings. And today’s blog isn’t really about this specific house; it’s more about a style of home found in the Cambridge subdivision in the Glen in Glenview Illinois. It’s a throwback to the 1950’s, and I love it.

I scheduled an open house at this home at 2458 W. Lake Avenue in Glenview a few days ago; and after I set everything up I took a glass of lemonade out to the front porch. (Yes, a front porch!) While enjoying the great weather and my view of Lake Glenview and Gallery Park across the street, my husband dropped by delivering some treats I like to serve at open houses. He joined me on the porch, and the stress of life in 2015 just oozed out of our bodies. It was quiet, a little warm but with a light breeze, and…we just sat there. Just like people did when Ike was President, Elvis was king, and cars had fins.

There are many housing types in Cambridge ranging from row homes, townhouses, duplexes, two-flats, large estate homes, and traditional single family homes. Several of the other Glen subdivisions have a single home type. Tower Crossing has its red brick Georgian townhomes, Southgate its huge estate homes, Glen Shore its luxury condos. But Cambridge is a wonderful mix of…well, of everything.

Anyway, if you like the idea of a front porch, tidy yard, and pretty flowers bordering your front walk, maybe you should visit Cambridge. Just give me a call or send an email. I am an award-winning Realtor and a long term resident of the Glen.

Hey buyers…there are plenty of Glen homes for sale

May 18, 2015 by Margaret Ludemann

The conventional wisdom in real estate right now is that it’s a seller’s market because of low inventory (homes for sale) and high demand (lots of buyers). And that’s right, up to a point. It really doesn’t mean that there are few homes for sale. It only means that there are more buyers than sellers. A serious buyer DOES have options. There ARE homes for sale. In fact, there are currently 24 listed homes in the Glen plus several more new construction properties not yet move-in ready.

The Glen is a north shore residential and retail development in Glenview Illinois. It is composed of several distinctly different neighborhoods, all with luxury homes within walking distance of Glen Town Center, the community’s shopping and dining hub. I’ve described the Glen this way: It’s like you uprooted the Lincoln Park neighborhood of Chicago and dropped it in Glenview. The lifestyle, especially in the townhome neighborhoods, feels “city”, but the map says “suburbs”…as in great schools, less traffic, and hassle free living.

So about those homes for sale. There are seven single family homes for sale ranging in price from $650,000 to $1,699,000. The attached properties include townhomes, row homes, duplex villas and condos. The home prices in this category range from $430,000 to $810,000. Homes listed for sale in the Glen range in size from 2000 square feet to nearly 5000 square feet. Some of the homes are fourteen years old. Some are brand new. In short, a buyer has options. And they are good options.

My proprietary website, www.homesintheglen.com identifies every home for sale, and it includes a wealth of information about each one. Because the site is fed by the Multiple Listing Service which includes homes that are under contract but not yet closed, I suggest you contact me to determine exactly which Glen homes are still available that meet your needs. I am a long time Glen homeowner and an award winning Realtor with @properties. I can be reached at margaret.ludemann@gmail.com or by phone at 847-401-1802.
