The Glen’s Glen Shore condos offer luxury and affordability

February 23, 2015 by Margaret Ludemann

The Glen in Glenview Illinois on Chicago’s north shore consists of privately owned homes, rental apartments, retirement communities and Navy housing. Of the 1,252 privately owned homes, occupied by 3,725 residents, you’ll find single family homes, townhomes, row homes, duplexes, two-flats and condo apartments. The largest of the various neighborhoods, Southgate, has 299 homes and 1,039 residents.

On the other end of the spectrum is Glen Shore, a luxury condo development with 31 units and 46 residents; and that’s my subject for today’s blog. Glen Shore is located at 2300 Chestnut Avenue, east of Attea Middle School, near Lehigh. It’s in the same area as Glenview State Bank. It is an attractive brick building with one, two and three bedroom units. The homes in the west side of the building have lovely views of Lake Glenview and Gallery Park which are the center pieces of The Glen.

One of the great attractions to Glen Shore is its proximity to the Glenview Park Center and Gallery Park. The park center offers a health & fitness center, indoor track, swimming pools, water park, a basketball court, and a senior center. Gallery Park has walking trails, tennis courts, playing fields, a lookout tower, amphitheater, Little Bear Garden, and fishing in Lake Glenview. Glen Shore is also equally convenient to the Glenview Train Station with Metra service to Chicago and Amtrak service to Milwaukee and the North Glenview/Glen Metra Station. Glen Town Center’s many shops and restaurants are also nearby.

The condos are beautiful units. One bedroom homes can be purchased in the $300s and larger unit pricing is in the $400s and $500s depending on size and view. The problem is that few come on the market due to the number and quality of homes and affordability. No homes sold in 2014, though three were sold in 2013.

If you may be interested in Glen Shore or other homes in The Glen, please contact me. I am a Glen resident and an award winning Realtor affiliated with @properties.

Many neighborhoods and housing types in The Glen

February 17, 2015 by Margaret Ludemann

There are 1,255 privately owned homes in The Glen in Glenview, Illinois. I’m frequently asked questions about the Glen real estate market, and my answer often surprises people. I tell them that there is no Glen housing market. The fact is that there are ten real estate markets within the Glen development. Ten? Indeed, and here is what I mean.

The Glen is composed of ten neighborhoods built by several different developers. Each has its own unique characteristics. Different kinds of homes…such as single family homes, townhomes, row homes, duplexes, two-flats and condos. The homes are of vastly different sizes ranging from about 1200 to over 5,000 square feet. There is also great diversity in price points. They range from the mid-$300,000’s to well over $2 million. Because of these differences the demographics of Glen homeowners and prospective homeowners vary widely. Hence, ten unique Glen real estate markets.

The nine neighborhoods with completed homes (the 10th, Westgate, is currently under construction) are large…and small…and in between. By that I mean that, for example, Glen Shore has 31 homes while Cambridge has 244. Here is a list of the ten developments, along with the number of completed homes and home types in each.

Cambridge: 244 single family homes, townhomes, row homes, duplexes, and two-flats

Chapel Crossing: 167 single family homes

Glen Shore: 31 condo apartments

Landings: 143 single family homes

Patriot Commons: 68 completed townhomes and condo apartments; and more are under construction

Regency: 149 townhomes, attached villas (duplexes), and two single family homes

Southgate SFH: 237 single family homes

Southgate TH: 62 townhomes

Tower Crossing: 154 townhomes

The Westgate neighborhood will have 171 homes, a mix of single family, townhomes and row homes.

So you see, the great diversity of home types, sizes, and prices make The Glen an attractive choice for many different prospective buyers. If you are interested in living in The Glen, please contact me. I am an original Glen homeowner and a Realtor affiliated with @properties.

11 more great reasons to live in The Glen

November 3, 2014 by Margaret Ludemann

In my blog last week (24 great reasons to live in The Glen) I told you about the convenience and fun of having 24 restaurants all within walking distance of Glen residents. Well, something happened last Saturday night that reminds me of 11 more great reasons. So here’s the story…

A Glen neighbor invited my husband and me to attend a party in their home. The theme was Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Is that fun or what?   So while I was getting all dressed up 1960’s style my husband was pulling together his formal attire for the evening. Tux, check. Tux shoes, check. Cummerbund, check. Bow tie, check. Tux shirt…oops, where’s the shirt? After determining that a) his shirt was at the laundry, and b) the laundry was closed, he was stuck. Then it occurred to us that we live a half block from Glen Town Center, the Glen’s shopping and dining “main street”. Quickly thinking through the many stores in the center, we decided that he had two men’s clothing stores within a block of our home. So he put everything on sans tux shirt and he ran out the door. (Yes, he was wearing a tee shirt under his jacket!) Ten minutes later he reappeared with a stunning white tux shirt; and off we went to the party.

So this morning I decided to look at the Glen’s directory, and I found 11 clothing stores in the center. Some are specialty shops that carry children’s clothes, sports attire, and women’s or men’s clothing. Von Maur, the large upscale clothing store, is also in Glen Town Center, and of course it carries most everything for most everyone.

The Glen (in Glenview, Illinois on Chicago’s North Shore) is a special place. The development has over 2,000 luxury homes, 24 restaurants, a movie theater, museum, art studio, and yes indeed 11 clothing stores…all within a short walk of any home. If you would like to learn more about living in The Glen, please give me a call at 847-401-1802 or send me an email at margaretludemann@gmail.com. I am an award winning Realtor who specializes in Glen homes (single family homes, townhomes, row homes, duplexes, two-flats, condos, and apartments). Home prices range from about $400,000 to $2,000,000.

Who knows…maybe one day you’ll live here…and be in desperate need of a tux shirt on a Saturday night.

24 great reasons to live in The Glen

October 28, 2014 by Margaret Ludemann

There are 24 restaurants in The Glen, the upscale housing and retail development in Glenview Illinois on Chicago’s North Shore. We realtors talk a lot about homes. How big they are. Where they are located. Nearby schools. Prices. Too often, though, we forget to discuss other benefits of living in a particular locale. So today I want to tell you about a HUGE benefit of living in The Glen. And here’s one: As a resident I can walk to two dozen Glen restaurants. Really.

The Glen is not your ordinary housing development. Sure, we have plenty of single family homes with large yards. But we also have townhomes, row homes, two-flats, duplexes, condos, and rental apartments. And they are in close proximity to all of these wonderful places to dine and also dozens of shops and entertainment venues. We’re kind of suburban. But we’re kind of urban, too. Actually, we’re a blend of both…with the advantages of each.

I live in Tower Crossing. It’s a neighborhood of townhomes that borders Glen Town Center, The Glen’s “main street”. I can walk out my front door and walk a half block to Salerno’s Italian restaurant. Walk a half block in the other direction and I can dine in The Glen Club’s grill with traditional American cuisine. There are 15 other restaurants right in town center and several others if I’m up for a walk of 5 or 6 blocks. The Glen offers food of all kinds. We have, as I said, Italian and American cuisine; and we also have Mexican, Irish, Japanese, Thai and Indian. From upscale dining to casual sandwich shops, The Glen has it all.

How many times have you wanted to go out to eat, but you didn’t want to deal with traffic? Or maybe you didn’t want to drive after having a cocktail? Ah, the beauty of living in The Glen.

To see a list of all Glen restaurants (and their menus) go to www.theglentowncenter.com. And if you are interested in living in the Glen, give me a call at 847-401-1802 or send me an email at MargaretLudemann@CBexchange.com.
