About This Home

As of May 2022

Forest Drive is Glenview's "best-kept" secret - enjoy country-style living on .62 acres backing to the forest preserves. Home was completely remodeled from top to bottom in 2016. Hardwood floors throughout, all new 6-panel doors, new lighting, new kitchen, 4 new bathrooms and gorgeous window treatments. The original living room has been transformed into an amazing office with gorgeous glass pane French doors. Family room is adjacent to the over-the top kitchen featuring higher end stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, granite counter tops and a classic porcelain Farmer Sink. The first floor primary bedroom features beautiful views of the forest preserves, a walk-in closet plus a standard closet and a luxurious primary bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub and shower. Aside from the primary bedroom is another bedroom and a full bath on the main level. Did I mention the huge first floor laundry room with loads of cabinets? There are three additional bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs with loads of closet space and storage. The sprawling finished basement is to die for with beautiful porcelain flooring throughout. Game room, recreation area, sitting area and a huge custom-built wet bar with granite countertops and designer pulls. There is also a full bath in the basement and yes, more storage. Forest Drive is a dead-end cul-de-sac street with 33 homes and Indian Trail Park. Great location with easy access to the Des Plaines Rives Bike Trail that will take you all the way to Wisconsin or to the city of Chicago - take your pick! We are also minutes to Glenbrook South High School, the newly remodeled Glenview Community Ice Center, Glenbrook Hospital, The Historic Grove, River Nature Trail Center and the Illinois Tollway. Highest and best will be accepted by 8pm Saturday, April 23.
