Luxury homes of different types, styles and prices are available in The Glen

by

The Glen in Glenview Illinois is a housing and retail development with a large variety of home types and prices. I’ve lived here since 2003, and I focus my real estate practice largely in this wonderful community. Part of the lure of The Glen is its convenience to downtown Chicago, barely 40 minutes by train from our local Metra station, an easy walk from any of our homes. Another great benefit is Glen Town Center with scores of restaurants and shops. But this blog isn’t about transportation or shopping. Instead, I want to tell you about our homes.

We have over a thousand luxury homes in The Glen including single family homes, row homes, townhomes, duplexes, two-flats and condos. Their sizes range between about 1,200 to 5,000 square feet. So it’s a great place to live for an individual or for large families. There are ten distinct Glen neighborhoods, each with different housing styles. There are colonial, contemporary, Georgian, and many other architectural designs. The common elements in all are luxury and beauty.

There is also great variety in home prices. Condos and townhomes start in the $300’s. Single family homes start in the $700’s, and those on The Glen Club’s championship golf course can be over $2 million. There is even some new construction still available.

Large variety of luxury home types and prices in The Glen

by

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.
