About the community
New-construction townhomes in a walkable pocket of Des Plaines.
Halston Market is a new-construction attached townhome community in Des Plaines, built by M/I Homes off East Oakton Street with addresses along Bogart Street, Times Drive, and nearby lanes. Announced in 2022 as a planned enclave of 125 townhomes and delivered through roughly 2025, it offers three-level floor plans from M/I's River North Series, each with an attached two-car rear-load garage and an open main-level kitchen and living area. Two landscaped entrances, a central gazebo commons, and green corridors give the community a tidy, walkable feel, and the location is its strongest card: minutes from downtown Des Plaines, Metra, and O'Hare.

What it’s actually like to live here
Halston Market is built for buyers who want a brand-new, lock-and-leave home in a genuinely convenient location without the upkeep of a single-family house. The three-level layouts put living, dining, and kitchen on a bright open middle floor, bedrooms above, and a flex foyer level with the garage below, which suits professionals, commuters, downsizers, and small families who value a modern floor plan and a two-car garage over a big yard. With lawn care and snow removal handled by the association, weekends are freed up, and the central gazebo commons and green corridors give the enclave a friendly, walkable feel.
Location is the community's clear strength. Residents are minutes from downtown Des Plaines and its Metra station for a one-seat ride to the Loop, close to I-90 and I-294 for driving, and near Rosemont's shopping and entertainment. O'Hare is right there, which is a real convenience for frequent travelers and anyone working near the airport, and Advocate Lutheran General in Park Ridge is a short drive for healthcare.
The honest tradeoffs are the normal ones for attached new construction in an airport-adjacent suburb. Homes share walls, so buyers trade some sound privacy and yard space for low maintenance and price, and depending on the exact unit and prevailing flight paths you may notice aircraft and highway noise, so it is worth walking a specific home at different times of day. Cook County's property tax load is meaningful and should be budgeted carefully. Because the community is small and the builder phase has largely sold out, inventory is thin and mostly resale, so buyers should lean on the live Market snapshot to see what is actually available.

The questions I get most from buyers shopping Halston Market. If yours isn't here, text 224-385-8779, same-day reply.

- Halston Market is a townhome association. Recent listings have shown monthly dues in the low-$300s, and per the MLS the assessment covers common-area lawn care and snow removal, which is the community's low-maintenance appeal. The association is professionally managed (Property Specialists Inc. per the MLS). Confirm the current dues, full inclusions, and reserve details with the management company and the association disclosure package before relying on them.

Your local agent
Joe knows Halston Market
Most agents will list anything. I focus on the places I actually know, and the things that move value here don't show up in the MLS write-up: which streets and buildings hold demand, what the HOA or assessments really cover, how the comps read once you account for condition and location, and where buyers consistently want to be.
When you're ready to tour or list, you want someone who has read the last 50 closed comps in this specific market, not a national average, and can tell you what they actually mean for your price. That's how I work. Text or call any time, and I'll give you a real take, not a brochure.
