Tower Crossing in The Glen checks all the boxes

by

Hiding under my desk I found a newspaper article about townhomes.  I cut it out of the paper a couple of months ago.  Must have slipped off my desk.  Anyway, the writer* offered four recommendations for townhome buyers.  As I read it again, it occurred to me that that The Glen’s Tower Crossing townhomes checked each of the four boxes.

#1        PLACE A PREMIUM ON LOCATION    CHECK, Tower Crossing is in The Glen, a residential and retail development in Glenview Illinois.  The development has its own “Main Street” with shops, restaurants, and cinema.  Glenview offers award-winning schools and its own train station getting you to downtown Chicago in a little over half an hour.

#2        LOOK FOR A TOWNHOME WITH AN EXPANSIVE INTERIOR    CHECK, there are six models of townhomes ranging in size from 3032 sq ft to 4105 sq ft.  That’s big!

#3        DON’T TRADE OFF PARKING    CHECK, each of the 154 townhomes in Tower Crossing has its own 2+ car garage.

#4        LOOK FOR A HARMONIOUS COMMUNITY    CHECK, I’ve lived in Tower Crossing for 16 years, and my neighborhood is the friendliest place I’ve ever lived.  We have cookouts, picnics, cocktail parties, holiday get-togethers and much more.

So, as you can see, Tower Crossing checks all the boxes.  We are a harmonious community of large townhomes with attached parking; and we are walking distance to retail and a Metra train station.  Plus, our kids attend among great schools.

If you’re interested in this kind of townhome living, give me a call.  I am an award-winning @properties Realtor and resident of this remarkable community.

The Glen…Convenient to Everything

by

My husband and I recently purchased a condo in his home town of Omaha.  It’s for investment purposes, at least for now.  Someday way down the road after I retire, we may use it personally as well as keeping our home here in The Glen (in the north shore community of Glenview).

Why do I mention this?  Well, because we chose a location very much like The Glen.  By that I mean, the condo is within walking distance of restaurants, shopping, and a movie theater.  After living in The Glen, we couldn’t imagine spending time – full or part – in a place that doesn’t have this level of convenience.

Our Glen home is a half-block from a great pizza place, Your Pie.  Within the three-block long main street called Tower Drive, we have a choice of numerous restaurants, wonderful shops, Arclight Cinema, Kohl Children’s Museum, a laundry, ice cream parlor, Starbucks and so much more.  We can even walk to a Metra train station that gets us to Chicago’s loop in 30 – 45 minutes.  If I wasn’t a Realtor, I’m not sure we would even own a car.

So, if this sounds like a great place to live, give me a call.  There are many luxury home types currently for sale including single family, townhomes, row homes, duplexes, two-flats and condo/apartments.  Prices range from around $400,000 to over $2 million.  Certainly, you can find one that’s perfect for you.

The Glen is America’s 7th fastest growing high-income neighborhood: Bloomberg

by

Bloomberg, the prestigious business publication, today reported that The Glen has been the 7th fastest growing high-income neighborhood in America since 2000.  The Glen, on the grounds of the former Glenview Naval Air Station, is a wonderful retail and residential development in the Chicago north shore village of Glenview.  It is also my home.  I purchased a home here in the early days of the development back in 2003.  Here is a link to the Bloomberg article, and if you are interested in living in The Glen please let me know.
