About this home

Top-floor living in a well-established River Forest elevator building - no neighbors above, abundant natural light, and nearly 1,800 square feet of thoughtfully rehabbed living space that sets a high bar for move-in ready. Completely renovated in 2024, Unit 504 was rebuilt with intention. The kitchen features flat-panel cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a custom southwest-inspired tiled backsplash - finished with an eat-in layout that balances everyday function with genuine style. Luxury vinyl plank flooring anchors the main living areas, complemented by tile in the kitchen and plush carpet in all three bedrooms - each surface selected where it performs and looks best. Both bathrooms were fully updated as part of the 2024 rehab, delivering clean, modern finishes throughout. The floor plan is generous and well-proportioned, with an abundance of closet storage inside the unit and a large private storage closet conveniently located on the same floor. Two deeded garage parking spaces are included - a premium feature in this market. The building is professionally managed with healthy reserves, and coin laundry is available on-site. Elevator access makes the fifth floor as effortless as the first. The location is equally compelling. Short distance to I-290, nearby public transportation, and walkable proximity to the dining and retail corridors that define River Forest and Oak Park. Concordia University and Dominican University are minutes away, and the unit falls within the acclaimed Oak Park-River Forest School District.
