Some homes ask you to compromise. This one never will. Tucked into one of River Forest’s most coveted streets, surrounded by the kind of architecture that makes people slow their cars down just to look - this is the ranch-style, with a guest second floor - you did not know you were waiting for. Completely reimagined by River Forest’s premier builder, nearly five thousand square feet of thoughtfully designed living space unfolds with the quiet confidence. Walk through the door and the light finds you first. The open, airy living spaces flow effortlessly from one room to the next - no awkward transitions, no wasted corners, just a graceful rhythm that feels natural from the very first step. At the heart of it all, a stunning open-concept kitchen stuns with quartz counters, Fisher-Paykel, Z-Line, and Bosch appliances - all brand new with beautiful finishes throughout. This space and brightness make every morning feel like a fresh start. The five-bedroom, five and one-half bathroom layout speaks directly to the way people actually live today - and the way they want to feel when they come home. For the downsizer who refuses to downsize their life: the first-floor primary suite is your sanctuary. Luxurious, private, and perfectly appointed - no stairs, no compromise; no mornings spent wishing for something different. Guests settle beautifully into a second luxury primary suite upstairs, giving everyone the space and privacy they deserve. When the family gathers - and they will - the finished lower level becomes the heartbeat of the house. A second family room, dedicated office space, a recreation room that earns its name, and storage that actually solves problems. This is where the holidays happen. Where poker nights run late. Where grandchildren make memories. Step outside to your private European-style courtyard - a rare and romantic feature that sets this home apart from every other listing in town. The paver patio opens to a roomy backyard that feels like a secret; peaceful and green and entirely your own. An attached garage completes this property along with a location that puts dinner on North Avenue within a leisurely stroll; Thyme and Honey nearby for flowers and fresh bread. The Oak Park River Forest Country Club is a short scenic trip down Thatcher Avenue -the kind of errand that feels like a pleasure. And when the world calls you further - O’Hare is easily accessible for spontaneous weekend escapes while Metra whisks you into Chicago’s Loop in under thirty minutes. This is River Forest living at its most effortless: refined without being rigid; generous without being showy; ready for you exactly as you are right now.

Chicago’s luxury property market has changed dramatically within the past decade – growing from a small, self-contained specialty, served by a handful of brokers, to a vast and highly competitive marketplace requiring an ever-increasing level of sophistication and reach.

Today, what drives success in the luxury market is not only a skilled and accomplished corps of agents, but also a comprehensive marketing strategy to brand individual listings and reach a relatively diverse audience.

That is why we offer the @Luxury Collection, a sales and marketing program that leverages @properties’ unmatched resources and relationships to meet the needs of Chicago’s luxury property owners. From new-construction in Lincoln Park to landmark mansions in the North Shore, from vintage high-rises along Lake Shore Drive to the newest generation of super-luxury towers, @properties has successfully marketed and sold hundreds of millions of dollars in high-end Chicago real estate.
