231 S. Bruner Hinsdale IL 60521

When looking at a map of 231 South Bruner in Hinsdale IL 60521, a picture really does say one thousand words. In this case, it is particularly true if you aspire to live in Hinsdale in a true “walk to” location. Let me break it down for you:

• Three parks within three blocks
• The Hinsdale swimming pool is within four city blocks
• The West Hinsdale Metra Train depot is within two blocks (talk about a way to be the envy of the office)
• The blue ribbon award-winning Madison Elementary School is within four blocks
• Downtown Hinsdale is a ten minute walk (unless you are a particularly slow walker)

In plain terms, if you are a train commuter and want a “walk to” lifestyle. 231 S. Bruner in Hinsdale is a rock star!

Moreover, if you are seeking a screaming value in today’s market, here is one served up to you on a silver platter. This deal is absolutely unbeatable in this price range. The current owners paid $1,058,000 for this home as new construction in December of 2004. Since then, they have made significant tasteful improvements including landscaping, hardscaping, window treatments to include plantation shutters, designer carpet runners, flat panel tv, etc.  You can easily see that these improvements have run into the thousands. At the current pricing level, this deal is a slam dunk.

The house is in perfect condition. This is not one of those houses that was cleaned up in the eleventh hour for marketing purposes.The owners have painstakingly maintained this house so that it is in near new condition. Come see for yourself. You will NOT be disappointed. Do not wait too long as this is one of those houses that you thought would remain available, but will not.

If you own a house in Hinsdale that is located in-town (South of Ogden Avenue and North of 55th Street); has at least 3,300 square feet (exclusive of basement); a three car garage or potential for the on site parking of three cars; is less than ten years old; and you want to sell it for less than $2,000,000, please call me.

I have reviewed all of the 300+ detached homes that are now on the market in Hinsdale. There is currently not a direct match between what is on the re-sale market and the buyers’ needs.

The desired closing date is flexible.

The buyer does not need to sell their currrent home before buying, nor is their financing contingent on them selling and/or closing on their current home.

If you think that you may have a  match, call Bryan Bomba at 630-789-8280. Thanks.

You asked for it….you got it. The following are the current average asking prices for single family detached homes in each of the following cool western suburbs:

Burr Ridge: $1,302,380

Clarendon Hills: $727,623

Downers Grove: $498,813

Elmhurst: $516,113

Hinsdale: $1,233,682

Western Springs: $691,555

Oak Brook: $1,355,500

What is YOUR burning real estate question?

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 In general, homes with three car garages are rare commodities in Hinsdale Illinois. Ones with attached three car garages that are priced under $1,500,000 are even more uncommon.

203 The Lane in Hinsdale IL is a newer home with all the new home amenities-it is less than 10 years old. More importantly, it has been so gently lived in that it truly shows like a new home. It is one of those homes where you wonder if anyone really lives there because of how perfect it appears.

The location is nearly as special as the condition. It is situated on a low traffic street (a rarity in some parts of Hinsdale) in a highly appealing in-town location. If you have school-aged children, you will love that this home is just a block from The Lane Elementary School.

Interested? Just contact Bryan@BryanBomba.com with all of your questions. It would be my pleasure to help you.

18 S. Elm Hinsdale Illinois

This location is pure gold.

The locals know it as simply “southeast”. The rest of the world refers to it as southeast Hinsdale. While Hinsdale is an affluent western suburb of Chicago, this neighborhood is in an elite class within Hinsdale. Frankly, most homes are valued well in excess of $2,000,000.

The power of this location has many facets.

First, it offers a quick and easy walk to downtown Hinsdale. This means ease of access to the Metra train depot, shops, restaurants, etc.

Second, it is a quick and easy walk to Hinsdale Middle School.

Third, it is just flat out beautiful.

The home is an extremely appealing Dutch Colonial with four bedrooms (all on the second floor) 2 1/2 bathrooms, a first floor family room and a large eat-in kitchen. It is much larger than it appears as it has been expanded by way of a two story addition.

Who says Hinsdale is a sleepy little town? Yesterday, it was not. As the home of a number of Chicago Blackhawks players and scouts, Hinsdale had a Stanle Cup surprise.

Here’s a photo of Coach Joel Quenneville outside Zak’s Place in downtown Hinsdale proudly displaying his recent accomplishment.

And a later photo of Jimmy Limparis of Montreux Custom Homes and family displaying the Stanley Cup as well.How did Jimmy get the cup?

In an unrelated story, Joel Quenneville has been seen since the earlier photo was taken……

The smart buyers in this real estate market buy homes where two important criteria are met:

1. The house is a clear value proposition to the extent that the pricing is not just good, it is compelling.

2. The house is the prettiest girl at the dance.

Here is an opportunity to meet and exceed both components with a newly listed Burr Ridge IL estate.

This is a 4,300+- square foot home (and this does NOT include the finished basement and/or garage area) with a very high level of updating (stone countertops and steel appliances…you get the idea) on an oversized lot in central Burr Ridge.

View the virtual tour of 8715 Wedgewood in Burr Ridge. It is nothing short of an amazing house. And now here is the best part….the realistic owners have priced this home at $749,900. This is not a misprint.

Could you imagine coming home from work every day and pulling up to this house and knowing it was your own? How about the looks on the faces of first time guests as they arrive? Does this not scream “You have arrived” ? Do not wait another minute. Contact Bryan Bomba of Coldwell Banker at Bryan@BryanBomba.com to set your private showing appointment right now.
